Join Michael, Octavia Field Library Branch's Children's Librarian, for an hour of nursery rhymes, storytelling, arts & crafts and playtime. We'll talk, sing, write, read and play, and your prekindergarten age kiddos will have so much fun that they won't even realize they are gaining valuable pre-literacy skills. Ages 0-5.
