With Christmas just around the corner, parents are infusing the holiday spirit into their children’s learning, weaving festive themes into story time, rhymes and songs.

On Tuesday, December 10, the Kyabram library welcomed six excited preschoolers and their parents for the weekly story-time session.

For the next fortnight, these library sessions will be sprinkled with holiday cheer as the stories take on a festive flavour.

Free Press journalist Jemma Jones went along to capture the festive fun.
