In fact, play helps them develop early literacy and school-readiness skills, and it can be a load of fun. Open-ended activities engage a variety of age groups and encourage adult-child interaction. Our library may not be an actual playground, but there is a place for play here.&lt;br /&gt;Please join us and watch the learning happen!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;</description>
