Also, visit the library June 10 - July 28 for FREE daily activities, including weekly story times for children (ages 18 months – grade 3), Chess Club (ages 8-15), LEGO Mania, Globetrotters (grades 3-5), and Friday Family Movies. Enjoy exciting performers every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon, including live animals, magic shows, ventriloquists, Mad Science, All-American Frisbee Dogs, and more! The Summer Reading Program kicks off with an exciting Wizard of Oz theme party on Friday, June 7, from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. and will culminate with the outdoor Summer Reading Grand Finale on Friday, August 2, from 6:00 - 8:30 p.m.

Enjoy stories, crafts, and fun activities at the library during library story time! Registration is open to all library card holders (child or caregiver). Space is limited, so register early! Preference will be given to Colleyville residents; non-residents will be notified if a spot is available. Story times available for ages 18 months through grade 3 and last for seven weeks. Chess Club open to ages 8 - 15.
Registration will open Monday, June 3 at 10 a.m. and can be done either in person or online. On this Calendar page, find the class that you would like to register for (any week), then click on the Register button. Caregivers must fill out one registration form per child.
**PLEASE NOTE**: Submission of a story time registration form DOES NOT guarantee the child a spot in the class. Registration requests will be processed as quickly as possible in the order they are received. A staff member will call all story time registrants to confirm whether or not there is a spot available in the class. The Colleyville Public Library makes an effort to include as many children as possible in story time that our safety, staffing, and budget guidelines allow.
