The Tiny Bookstore PlayGroups are weekly playtimes for kids who are 2, 3, and 4 years old. PlayGroups give kids the opportunity to bond with their caretakers while meeting new friends and learning something new. The PlayGroups program is basically a Mommy and Me program, but we gave it a title that reflects that we welcome all caregivers.
Each PlayGroup session includes a storytime, music, art, and play time. Monthly and seasonal plans come with a free picture book from our New Release Club for every month you participate in PlayGroups. Space in each session is limited to 4 children plus their caretaker.
