Tom Green County Library

 This library is seriously the coolest library I have ever been in!  We come here every Thursday for Story Time.  The library has three different levels and the entire lower level is just for kids.  It was built just over a year ago and it is beautiful.  The kids area is so much fun.  They have these holes that are cut into the wall and carpeted as reading nooks, plus tons of tables and chairs for reading, a dress up corner, a little kid play station, learning computer games station and a little play house.
 The actual Story Time room is full of this huge cutouts of book characters and has all these toadstool that are cushioned and varying heights for all the kids to sit on during Story Time.  The ceiling is so cool, it has these drop down portions of different heights that have this metal leafed ring around the outside.  The colors are so vibrant and beautiful.  It has a very eclectic feel but it all goes together so smoothly.  I love to just look around at everything.
It is one of the highlights of our week to come here with our friends, get some books, sing some songs and dance around.  We are so lucky to have this magical place to go to!

I recently started taking the littles to our local library for story time. Our library is not at all as magical as yours (jealous) but story time is so captivating for the babies!!
