All El Paso Public Libraries will be having a fun new interactive activity after toddlers storytime(s). Toddlers make your mark is a grant funded project aimed at getting toddlers to make their mark. This includes squiggly lines, shapes, numbers, letters, etc. We will provide writing utensils and something to write on to encourage toddlers to begin writing. The hope is to get toddlers writing without any instruction either from staff or parents. We want them to write or draw whatever they want. Please stop by for our toddler story times on Tues and Wed at 11 a.m.
