Tinkerlab

Friday mornings in the Children’s Department are set aside as a time for toddlers and preschoolers to explore literacy, art, science and math with their caregivers. Stations are set up for little ones to learn at their own pace as they play. Tinkerlab is held every Friday morning (except the second Friday of the month) from 10:30am-12noon, according to the calendar. No registration is needed.

 

 

 

Wee Rock! The second Friday of each month will be set aside for music and movement. During this 45 minutes of songs, dance and finger plays, children will learn by playing. Concepts practiced include following directions, rhyme and rhythm, creative play, fine motor skills and coordination. Even infants and toddlers will enjoy the music and rhythms. Dress for a mini-workout. Caregivers must remain with children.
