Kids just wanna have fun…and their parents do, too! We encourage parents in our community to come together every Monday morning in the Children’s Department to play. While you’re here, enjoy getting to know other parents/caregivers and their little ones, and check out all that the library has to offer! There will be a quick story time about half way through the hour but the rest of the time is yours to enjoy and make new connections.
