In this webinar, Amy Schardein  will give you practical ideas for creating  storytimes built around themes that are unusual, creative and can meet specific programming goals. You will:
 
          * Evaluate classic and favorite titles to see them in a new light
          * Consider creative ways to enrich your storytimes beyond flannel boards and rhymes
          * Explore newer titles that invite more creative storytimes
          * Rekindle your enthusiasm for storytime!
 
When you feel yourself getting bored or burnt-out on storytime it’s time to get creative! You and your patrons will enjoy storytime more when the storyteller is excited about the day’s activities.
 
Participants will receive ready to print storytime outlines and a bibliography of sources.
