[Ueno] Storytime for Children: Every Saturday
Overview
"Storytime for Children" is running in Ueno. Every Saturday, local children can come and listen to stories read aloud.
It is for children aged 4 through junior high school age and their guardians (one guardian per child). Through picture books and stories, children get a chance to enjoy reading. Guardians join their children, so first-time participants can feel at ease.
Capacity is 30 people. No advance booking is needed, and places go first come, first served on the day. It's a good option for a Saturday outing and a nice way to start a reading habit.
