Move, Rattle & Shake is a half hour of fun! All ages are welcome, but kids up to age 6 will enjoy it most.

Registration is required, with a maximum of 30 children.

Community Playtime is open play for families; we set out toys and early literacy activities for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers to enjoy with their grownups. A great opportunity for kids to play with different toys, and for grownups to chat with other grownups! No registration required, although the play space is small.

Registration is required, with a maximum of 10 children. * If an older sibling needs to attend, we ask that they bring a stuffed animal or doll to use while they participate in the activities and songs.
