Some animals are only active at night. People often think of them as mysterious or creepy, but most of them are very helpful to humans. Come learn about these fascinating creatures that are awake when we are asleep through stories and a visit with a few animal friends from the Henson Robinson Zoo. 

Story Time is designed for preschool children ages 3-5 and their caregivers. On the second Tuesday of each month, visitors will enjoy picture books, a craft, and objects from the Museum’s collections. For additional information, please contact events@illinoisstatemuseum.org or (217) 782-6044. Story Time is sponsored by Bank of Springfield.
