Program Description

Event Details

Adaptive storytime will offer families of neurodiverse* children ages 3 -10 an engaging storytime in a small group setting. During this mixed ability storytime you can expect interactive stories and songs, social narratives, visual schedules, fun with fidgets and props, and time for free choice play and caregiver socialization. Activities will generally fall within a preschool to grade 1 interest level.   

* Neurodiversity describes the idea that people experience and interact with the world around them in many different ways; there is no one "right" way of thinking, learning, and behaving. The word neurodiversity is often used in the context of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as well as other neurological or developmental conditions such as ADHD or learning disabilities (Harvard). All children are welcome in this storytime but priority is given to children who fall under the neurodivergent umbrella.
