Along with books of course! There is a full kitchen set up that around 4-8 kids can play with. They have magna tiles and puzzles along with Lincoln logs. There are thousands of kids books and they are getting new books each month! There are zero late fees which is so nice because it's easy to forget it loose a book from time to time. Overall it's a great location and a great place to play, learn and meet new people!

Due to Covid restrictions, there are less activities being offered but I did not inquire about the iLab that is there. There is a "Calming Room" for autistic people, which is very inclusive and needed. I'm glad that the DCL includes this service.

The shape of the building is super unique with low ceilings and multiple wings. I like the kids area inside and outside. They have a Wildflower garden, play kitchen, places to read in the shade, etc. In case you need it, there are also plenty of computers to use for the internet, and a few meeting and study rooms.

Then, you have to climb stairs to get to the library action. However, once up there, it is a pretty big library and we like their kids section, too. There are just enough books to choose from and there is a pretty good play space for the kids to burn calories while you hunt for books. We find the staff to be helpful as well. Note - I just saw something that this location may be closing soon for a major construction/rebuild project, so if true, you may have to head to the Grandview location.
