The Margaret Hennigar Public Library in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, is launching a new weekly storytime program for toddlers and young children beginning March 24, 2026. This initiative aims to give local families a regular space to focus on reading and early development through social sessions.
The sessions are scheduled for Tuesday mornings at 10:30 am and are set up as drop-in events. During these times, children can listen to stories read out loud and interact with various books in a group environment.
The library is located at 135 North Park Street inside the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre. It serves as a branch within the South Shore Public Libraries system and functions as a hub for various community activities.
This new weekly fixture is designed to foster a love for reading at a young age while providing a consistent social outlet for families. The library currently hosts several other programs, including literacy workshops and social groups for all ages.
