Family Fun

A lap sit program built for babies and the youngest listeners, with short board books, bouncing rhymes and songs. Caregivers stay and take part the whole time. A gentle first introduction to the library for new families.

A weekly story time for toddlers and preschoolers featuring picture books, songs and movement. Children get a chance to wiggle between stories, so it suits kids who are still learning to sit still. Walk-ins are welcome.

The museum hands over a pile of cardboard boxes and lets children build whatever they can imagine. It is open-ended play with no set plan, which makes it a good fit for a wide range of ages. Admission is free.

A weekly gathering for homeschool families in Cleveland and the surrounding Liberty County area. Kids get a hands-on learning activity and parents get a chance to compare notes. Registration is requested.

Learn about the nine-banded armadillo, the only shelled mammal in the United States and a common sight along park roads at dusk. A ranger covers how armadillos dig, what they eat, and why they turn up where they do. A quick, family-friendly stop.

An evening bilingual storytime at the Nacogdoches Public Library. Children are welcome to come in pajamas for stories shared in English and Spanish. Free to attend.
