A new way to explore early literacy! This drop-in program is for children through 6 years old and their parents. Five different centers will be set up reflecting one of each of the early literacy skills. Centers may include books, hands-on activities, crafts, or music. Participants will be gathered together two times during the hour to do a group movement, or story activity. This is a new and exciting way to create a path of life-long learning.

Spend time with your toddler listening to stories, songs, and finger plays geared just for them. Appropriate for kids ages 2-3.

Join Ms. Rene for a great time in this program for 3-6 year olds who love to dance, sing and have a good time! We will play games, use easy musical instruments, shake bean bags and parachutes, and get ourselves moving and grooving.

Visit your local Anythink for video game free play. Ages 11 and up.

Each week features a different activity for families with children or teens of all ages. Join us in the program space downstairs for culinary, creative and technological fun. All ages welcome. Space is limited; registration recommended. Please visit our online calendar to register.
