Explore & Play
Start the morning with open-ended free play to spark your child's imagination! We provide a variety of toys -- trucks, rockets, blocks of all kinds, tactile toys, pretend foods, and more. This moment of unstructured play fosters creativity, encourages children to explore the world in their own way, and allows children to socialize with their peers. Explore & Play also offers an opportunity for the adults to engage in meaningful play with their children and form connections with other caregivers.
The doors will open at exactly 9:30 and we will begin to pick up at 10:00.

The only thing better than reading a good book is reading a good book and then talking about it with fellow book lovers. Every month we read a preselected book and then meet to discuss it. The Adult Services Librarian guides the discussion, but attendees are encouraged to bring up their own desired topics for the group to talk about, and we like to keep it loose and let the conversation flow naturally. The book club reads primarily fiction titles, but we change things up with a non-fiction title from time to time. Click here to view the current reading list.
