Have a young (pretend) vet, hair stylist, or farm-to-table chef in the family? Flex those imagination muscles by engaging with our variety of dramatic play stations set up around the library. Pretend play is a great way to practice emerging literacy skills, incorporate new vocabulary, and see/use printed language in everyday situations. Lots of fun play invitations for the littles, and complimentary coffee for the grown ups. Drop-in and play anytime between 10:30 am-2:00 pm.
Monday, April 6, 13, 20, 27 @ 10 am
Join us for a special time to bond with your little one and meet other caregivers. We will explore the joys of books and songs while building early learning skills you can practice at home. Come prepared to sit with your child on your lap. For children who are not yet walking confidently. This program runs for 20-25 minutes with time for play and socialization afterwards.
(We'll do our best to run on baby time, so come early/come late/come whenever you can get here!)
