Story Time
Pflugerville Community Library offers programs for children of all ages. Bring your children and introduce them to the joys of storybooks and reading at their earliest listening opportunities.  Story time introduces children to books, rhymes, music and other fun activities. Every week the library offers programs matched to children’s developmental levels. Library story times incorporate the early literacy skills that children must master before they can learn to read:  phonological awareness, vocabulary, print motivation, narrative skills, print awareness and letter knowledge. 

Parents and kerchiefs also benefit from these activities, as they learn new ways to share stories with children. Many story times are interactive, using puppets, fingerplays, songs, crafts or other activities that enhance a child's experience.
