Construction Crew! - In-person

at Damascus Library

Visit Damascus Library on Monday mornings to build with EduBlocks and DUPLO blocks! Play-engineering with blocks helps young children develop problem-solving, math, language, and literacy skills.

Each Monday, join us for a drop-in session of building with oversized building blocks, including EduBlocks and DUPLO! You can make the challenge of the week, or create your own build. We supply the blocks, and you supply the imagination! This hands-on session is for children ages 6 months to 6 years old. Play-engineering with blocks helps young children develop skills in problem-solving, math, language, and literacy. Plus, the creativity of construction helps them build self-esteem and confidence to try new things. Parents/caregivers MUST accompany children under the age of 8 during the program.
