Cheney Library Hosts Preschool Play & Learn Storytime

The November 20 program combines stories, songs and hands-on activities for children ages 3-5.

The storytime program is split into two 30-minute parts. Preschoolers first hear picture books, sing, and practice fingerplays. They then move into hands-on activities covering early ideas in math, science, art, and literacy.

Parents and caregivers participate alongside their children, making the session a shared opportunity for play and interaction. The program builds literacy, social development, and STEAM skills—science, technology, engineering, art, and math—that children can use in kindergarten. Families may also continue exploring these areas at home. Children can get their own library card as well.

Additional Friday sessions are listed for December 4, December 11, and December 18, 2026. Library space is limited, so parties with 10 or more people need to call before attending. Spokane County Library District works to include attendees with differing abilities. For hearing support, ASL, or another ADA accommodation at an in-person library event, contact comments@scld.org or 509.893.8200 no fewer than five business days beforehand. Zoom programs provide live transcription, while recordings made from Zoom have automatically generated captions.
