Family Storytime @ Parrish Womble Park
Family

Family Storytime at Parrish Womble Park is a free, interactive outdoor reading program hosted by the Wake County Public Library system in Holly Springs. Children and their caregivers gather under the park's picnic shelter to participate in read-aloud books, action rhymes, and music designed to build early literacy skills. This program is geared toward toddlers and preschoolers, though all young children are welcome. Because the event takes place at a park shelter, you will want to bring a blanket or lawn chairs if you prefer not to sit on the picnic benches. Parking is available in the main lot near the athletic fields, and public restrooms are located nearby. There is no cost to attend, and registration is not required. This Monday morning event is a smart way to ease into the week. It allows you to get the kids outdoors, enjoy a structured educational activity, and then let them burn off energy at the adjacent playground afterward.
