Expose your little one to a wide range of skills in this active, first class experience.

Our very first class 28 years ago.
We start with a charming story and add our creative curriculum. Storybook Workshop's signature class fosters early literacy with a playful twist. By combining music, movement, drama and art with a classic piece of literature, we engage children actively with substantial developmental benefits. Our activities encourage cooperation, confidence, language proficiency and vocabulary building. Fine and gross motor skill building are emphasized. This age-appropriate class provides an excellent foundation for your soon-to-be reader. We built a business around this very popular "signature" class, many years ago!
This is a drop-off class.

Halloween Excitement!
This literature rich (and very special) art workshop provides the perfect way to spend a hands-on afternoon, creating a spooky project while celebrating a love of reading. A classic halloween story becomes our inspiration for puppet making. To add to the experience, we also construct a puppet theater to take home, providing a stage for ongoing puppet play.
Reenacting a favorite story with a puppet allows imaginative self-expression and develops language, vocabulary, and fine motor skills. These projects provide fun at home play, long after the workshop is over!
