Creative and interactive playtime featuring giant-sized building materials. Spark creativity and promote imaginative play.
Children choose building materials, think about what they want to build, draw what they want to create, and use the chosen materials to build what they designed. This program is for children 2 - 5 years old to enhance their Library experience through loose parts play and encourage communication, cooperation, and problem-solving skills.
Sponsored by the Friends of the New Orleans Public Library.
Norman Mayer Library is named for New Orleans businessman and one of the original Tulane College of Commerce and Business guarantors, Norman Mayer. After his passing, his wife donated money to the New Orleans Public Library to have the Library opened. Doors opened in 1949, and the Library has been serving the Gentilly area since.
