No knowledge of Korean required.

Storytime is a program for parents/caregivers and their children. Both the parent/caregiver and the child must be present during the entire program: unaccompanied adults or children will be asked to leave the program. When registering for this program, parents/caregivers should use their name and information–you don’t need a library card to participate!

Theme for February: Korean New Year - Celebrating Seollal, the Korean Lunar New Year!

On Seollal - Korean New Year, animal friends visited grandmother and grandfather’s house to eat tteokguk (Korean rice cake soup) and to do sebae (Korean bow). While they were enjoying the tteokguk, a scary tiger showed up. Will our animal friends be able to safely eat the tteokguk?

We will read a picture book titled Tteokguk Story and learn about the Korean holiday, Seollal. Students will also have the chance to learn how to write and speak Korean, plus how to make Korean rice cake soup together!

Korean Storytime is an online education program by the Korean Cultural Center New York and New York Public Library, St. Agnes. The program offers diverse themed storytime programs every month in Korean and English.
