Make a Splash with Storytime at the Pool:
A Perfect Summer Activity for Families
Summer fun is in full swing, and what better way to combine the joys of swimming with the magic of storytelling than at the Nozomi Aquatic Center’s “Storytime at the Pool” event? Hosted by the Chandler Public Library, this unique and free event is designed to bring families together for an unforgettable experience that’s both educational and entertaining.
What’s Happening?
At “Storytime at the Pool,” families with toddlers and preschoolers are invited to take a break from the pool and dive into a world of captivating stories, lively music, and joyful dancing. This isn’t your average storytime—it’s a full sensory experience where little ones can soak up the fun of books while enjoying the cool comfort of the poolside setting.
Each session kicks off with a new book, carefully chosen to engage young minds and spark their imaginations. As the librarian reads aloud, children can listen intently, follow along with the pictures, and even participate in the story through interactive elements like songs and movements. The sound of laughter and splashes fill the air as kids and parents alike get lost in the stories being told.
But the fun doesn’t stop with just stories! After the reading, there’s a 30-minute session of structured pool playtime. During this time, kids can splash around and enjoy the water under the watchful eyes of their parents and Nozomi Aquatic Center’s lifeguards. It’s the perfect opportunity for little ones to burn off some energy, practice their swimming skills, and socialize with other kids their age.
Why Attend?
This event is more than just a fun day at the pool—it’s a chance to foster a love of reading in children from an early age. Storytime helps develop language skills, expands vocabulary, and nurtures imagination, all while keeping kids entertained in a relaxed, enjoyable environment. Plus, the addition of pool playtime adds an extra layer of excitement, making it a must-do for families looking for summer activities.
