Storytime with Josh!

Join Josh for a weekly storytime adventure at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History! Every Friday morning, this engaging program brings children's books to life with energy and imagination. Josh, an Associate Director and Cleveland-born zoologist, connects each story to real museum artifacts, natural wonders, and science topics—transforming a simple reading session into a mini exploration of the natural world. The program is included free with general museum admission, making it an affordable way to spark curiosity about animals, wild places, and science. Families should check with museum staff at the Welcome Desk to find out which gallery location will host that week's session. Kids who love stories, hands-on discovery, and a bit of surprise will find plenty to enjoy here. It's a perfect outing for families looking to combine learning with storytelling in a fun, low-pressure environment.
