Fairyland is thrilled to announce this year’s volunteer training for this important, and fun program. Toddler Storytime takes place on Fridays at 10:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. with 20 minutes of interactive early literacy activities: reading aloud, singing, and movement. It encourages language development in a joyful environment. The training is led by Fairyland’s librarian who is also a teen services librarian at the San Francisco Public Library.
Training session: Friday, November 8 and Saturday, November 9 from 9:30 - 4:00 p.m. The training is highly interactive and both days are required!
We are looking for adults (18+) who want to be trained to lead toddler-specific Storytimes on our outdoor Emerald City Stage. Volunteers will commit to two days of training and lead approximately two Storytimes per month. Readers should be comfortable engaging with and leading a group of children, parents, and caregivers. In the training, you will develop skills in reading aloud, songleading, and other fun literacy-focused activities.
If you would like to become a Storytime volunteer, please email Vicky Chen at outreach@fairyland.org. You will be asked to complete a short questionnaire to find out more about your experience and interests. We strongly encourage men to apply!
