Whether your child is a baby, toddler or school-age, they probably love storytime just like mine do! Not only is it a fun outing, but it plays an important role in introducing kids to the magic of books. Another plus is that storytimes are FREE! We are lucky in Sacramento to have so many storytimes offered all week, every week!

My love for exploring and creating experiences with my three kids led to the founding of SacramentoSidetracks.com in 2009. I realized that Sacramento has so much to offer and I was excited to share my findings with other parents. Besides simply having fun, these are the other positive side effects of taking my kids on outings that I’ve discovered: we have quality time together away from the distractions at home, we cultivate our curiosity, learn new things, conversations are triggered by what we see and do, we connect and bond as a family, and we create new memories. Ready to get sidetracked, too? Let me be your guide!
