When children play, they learn. They solve problems, think strategically, relate to others, and manage life's ups and downs. Play helps children learn how to learn – and love learning. El Dorado Hills Library and Community Hubs are launching a six-session Play and Learn series. This play opportunity is designed for children ages 0-5. It is a fun time of open exploration with a purpose, where you, as the caregiver, can learn about your child's development through play!

Meet Teka.

Are you experienced in quilting or sewing, or a beginner looking to hone these skills? Then join us to socialize while you stitch!  You are encouraged to bring your projects, fabric, patterns, thread, questions, pins, enthusiasm, notions, and sewing machine, if you have one.    

We have a love of sewing/quilting, as well as 3 Brother sewing/quilting machines for use, a cutting mat, and a small assortment of supplies.  The stitching circle is just getting started as a space in which to create in a supportive and social atmosphere. This is not a class, but there will be a knowledgable person in the room to help troubleshoot issues that arise with machines.

Open-ended activities engage a variety of age groups and encourage adult-child interaction. Our library may not be an actual playground, but there is a place for play here.
