Toddlers and The Library
We took Erin for her first visit to the library earlier in the week. She really enjoyed it. There was an area with soft flooring, toddler books, plus some toys and even a kitchen. I thought of several reasons why the library would be a regular visit for us.
Free Books
Toddler books are so short it’s easy to become bored with them, with the libraries seemingly endless supply it will be a nice change from what we have at home.
Interaction
Erin ended up chatting and playing alongside another little girl, it was nice for her as she is an only child and any extra kid interaction she gets is gratefully received.
Community Hub
I found out from the message board that there was a playgroup Erin will be old enough for come February next year which would give us somethingelse to do and another chance to meet other children.
Readings
There was another notice advertising a monthly story reading, Erin would love this, and of course there is the added advantage that it’s free.
I've been blogging for four years and write about anything and everything that takes my fancy.

Libraries are great places for little ones! I’m lucky to live in walking distance of a library that is geared toward children. For our first trip, I took photos, silly me….
That is wonderful! I remember how much fun the library was for me as a kid. We have one very close to home now, but unfortunately the children’s section is very small. I need to look into a larger one, even if it is a drive!
