The Ida Rupp Public Library has several new and returning children’s programs beginning in January. Story Time with Mrs. Winke (previously called Tales for Toddlers) returns on Monday, Jan. 6. New programs include Sensory Story Time for toddlers with sensory needs or who are on the autism spectrum; After School Story Time for children 5-8 who still enjoy having a book read to them; and Bedtime Story Time to wind down after a busy week. All story times meet on a weekly basis.
