Effingham Public Library

Children's Programming Room

Join us for toddler-friendly activities with rotating themes, such as Tot Dance, Busy Tot, Chef Tot, Tot Art, & Tot Fit. No Registration Required.

Toddler Art Time is a hands-on, messy, and creative play session where little ones can explore paint, glue, paper, textures, and colors in a safe and welcoming environment. Instead of focusing on “perfect projects,” the emphasis is on the process—squishing, smearing, experimenting, and discovering. Caregivers and toddlers work side-by-side, creating memories and sharing in the joy of open-ended creativity.
