The session is aimed at school-age kids, with all ages welcome, so it works for a family with a kindergartner and an older sibling. Children 8 and under need a caregiver of at least 16 with them throughout. Entry is free and the calendar does not ask for registration. For questions, call the library at 980-432-8670. Families in the south and west of the county can catch the same storytime at the China Grove branch (December 7) or the Cleveland branch (December 5). ## Similar picks in Charlotte - [Shimmer and Shine Holiday Storytime — RPL West (Cleveland)](https://grassyknees.com/charlotte/activities/shimmer-and-shine-holiday-storytime-rpl-west-cleveland--listing-0dac91eca9a650c98dccf9b9) — Sat, Dec 5 · 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM · Rowan Public Library – RPL West, Cleveland · All ages · Free · checked Oct 27.
