Storytime at Alameda County Library

Join us for toddler storytime at the Fremont Library! Children and their caregivers are invited for a morning of stories, songs, and fingerplays. 

This program is designed to accommodate toddlers ages 18 to 36 months and their caregivers

Space is limited. Free tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis and will be distributed at the ticket line located outside the library 15 minutes before the program starts.

An ASL (American Sign Language) interpreter or closed captioning can be provided for this program if requested at least seven (7) business days in advance. For assistance, please contact your library or [email protected]

Children, parents, and caregivers will have a blast laughing, signing, and singing with Teacher Bill, author of the book, Signs of a Happy Baby. Mr. Bill integrates American Sign Language (ASL) into his storytime.

Baby Sign Language gives children the opportunity to communicate long before they can verbalize their wants and needs. Research studies show that signing with babies accelerates language acquisition, reduces frustration, enhances a child's self-esteem, and deepens the bond between parent and child.

Seats are limited, and a ticket is required to attend this storytime. Tickets will be handed out 15 minutes prior to the start of the program.
