Stories and Songs for Kids in Mountainside, NJ

Little hands shake tambourines, voices join in on the chorus, and a good story pulls everyone in close. On Monday, October 5, the Mountainside Public Library welcomes young children for Stories and Songs.

The program is for kids ages 3 to 6. It features longer stories, songs, dancing, and simple instruments for little ones to play. Union County Life shares library programs like this so Mountainside families can plan their week.

Every child must be joined by a grownup. The library is now asking families to register because of upcoming roof construction, so staff can reach attendees if plans change. Register through the program page on mountainsidelibrary.org.

Stories and Songs starts at 4 p.m. at the Mountainside Public Library, 1 Constitution Plaza, Mountainside.

For a preschooler, an afternoon of songs and stories can be the best part of the week. Find more Mountainside events, arts coverage, and community news on Union County Life.
