Overview
Recently I have become aware of the amazingness that many public libraries have to offer. Admittedly, libraries are a place that I have rather seldom visited over my years of life. Now that I have a little child, I’ve branched out a little bit and have been rather shocked to learn how cool and entertaining so many libraries are, with especially unique and fun areas for children. While visiting libraries with a two year old can be tough, it’s also been a great way for us to introduce our daughter, Scout, to playing quietly in indoor spaces.
The Haskett Branch Library is one of my favorite libraries in our area. The children’s section is just after entering the library and the actual entrance to the kids section is super cool with large insects dotting the walls above. After kids pass through the “kids place” entrance they are transported into a great children’s library and play area with spectacular paintings everywhere and a nice study room with computers.
The highlight for most kids will be the little farmers market setup with baskets, and play fruit and food items.
Additionally, there’s a table with items for coloring and drawing along with a story time theater.
