For some of the best entertainment in town this month, you need to be accompanied by a 3 year old. Puppet shows, world music, world stories, and creative instrumentation mark the programs available for free at our public libraries, aimed at the very young members of our community.
In addition, there are creative craft sessions resulting in masks and sock puppets. The activities are at Shoreline (SL), Richmond Beach (RB), and Lake Forest Park (LFP).
