They just updated the kids area of the library with a bunch of new toys. Kitchen, cars, huge dinosaurs, big barn with animals, stuffed dolls in all skin tones (love!), puzzles, puppets... I love it! They have a small couch and chairs around for story time, plus 5 huge low bookcases with am the books! I will definitely be using it more this summer when it's too hot to go outside! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-toys-does-your-library-have#post-2545436 Tue, 10 May 2016 14:36:33 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2545436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the baby area there are 3 activity cubes and some cardboard Melissa and Doug blocks. There are also iPads on the end of some of the shelves at kid level with educational apps and on the others there are puzzles. During baby story time they bring out bins of toys, books, and puzzles after the songs and stories are read. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-toys-does-your-library-have#post-2545431 Tue, 10 May 2016 14:35:40 +0000 sapphire 2545431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Puppet theatre, soft stacking blocks, foam blocks, an activity table...and a pretty large comfy kids section. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-toys-does-your-library-have#post-2545423 Tue, 10 May 2016 14:30:12 +0000 yin 2545423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The library has these Little Tikes plastic puzzle pieces that connect together. That's it! There are also computers, but my kids just head straight to the books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-toys-does-your-library-have#post-2545409 Tue, 10 May 2016 14:14:02 +0000 Mamaof2 2545409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tons!</p> <p>computer section<br /> Doll house with all the stuff<br /> Kitchen area with a cart full of food<br /> Puppet theater and puppets<br /> big book nook for reading<br /> tons of benches<br /> blocks and puzzles </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-toys-does-your-library-have#post-2545388 Tue, 10 May 2016 14:02:29 +0000 snowjewelz 2545388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At ours, I don't think there are any toys. At the one the next town over (the same distance for us), there is a separate toddler playing area but mostly just puzzles/blocks. DD wasn't that into it the last time we went. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-toys-does-your-library-have#post-2545381 Tue, 10 May 2016 13:57:47 +0000 Bao 2545381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our library right in town is pretty small, so the kids section isn't very large. They have a table for coloring, puzzles, Legos and a few stuffed animals. So not much! </p> <p>What toys/activities does your library have? </p>
