Boulder library story times

Three story times are available Monday through Saturday among the three Boulder library branches. All story times start at 10:15 a.m. and there is no registration required. Special story times are also available for babies, toddlers, and in both Spanish and English.
Boulder Library’s Main branch has the most story times, with story times happening on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Saturday’s story time is delivered in both Spanish and English. If you are looking for a story time closer to home, the George Reynolds branch offers story time on Tuesdays and the Meadows branch offers story time on Wednesdays.

Reading to a dog

Budding readers can try their new skill while reading to a dog. Each dog is a gentle, certified therapy dog who will listen, without criticism, to your child’s every word. To sign up for Read to the Dog, or for more information, contact Laurie Watkins, 303-441-3141 or e-mail readtothedog@boulderlibrary.org.

game nights are offered at the Boulder Main library and Meadows branch

Once children are in school, story times may not be what you are looking for to entertain the kids. While the Boulder libraries have many programs to help children with their reading, they have some other fun activities available as well.

Various game nights are offered at the Boulder Main library and Meadows branch. Main’s teen space hosts the Teen Game Night from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. every Tuesday. The second Tuesday of the month was expanded to include World of Warcraft (WOW) in the learning lab of the Main library.

For the younger children, ages 5 to 18, check out the board game “Go” at the Main library on Sunday afternoons from 2 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Go is a 4,000-year-old game from China. Taking only minutes to learn, “Go” teaches basic sportsmanship of concentration and respect for one’s opponent.

Bring the whole family for Family Game Night on Fridays at the Meadows library from 4 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. Games include various board games and Wii. While the majority of participants are families with elementary school-aged children, residents from the nearby nursing homes are known to come partake in the games.

Skills

Recent research is proving how important nature is to brain development especially in relation to social, emotional and cognitive skills. This is true for all children, but especially those diagnosed with ADHD, or kids who can't seem to focus, pay attention or have social issues.

Being outside helps kids develop a sense of quiet, calm, and receptivity to impressions and energy as they develop a personal relationship with nature. We are all born with the capacity for certain talents, our "seeds," which need the right nutrients to
grow and reach their potential. Nature is one of those key nutrients, but how it is cultivated and how children experience and connect to it will determine how it affects them.

Join Nancy Monson, Director at the Running River School, to learn how bringing nature closer to your kids' will nurture and change their lives in a positive and lasting way.
