Story Time at Newport Public Library is weekly programs on Tuesdays at 10 AM for about an hour.
Story Time is a great way for children to interact with other children. They build social skills while listening to stories, singing songs and making crafts that they can take home with them. The activities in our Story Times build confidence in children, and of course, it’s incredible fun!
