The Somerset County Library System of New Jersey's (SCLSNJ) Hillsborough branch hosted Deputy Mayor Robert Britting at toddler time on Tuesday, July 18, 2023. During the storytime segment of the program, the Deputy Mayor read, "Spot Bakes A Cake" by Eric Hill and "Hello, Day" by Anita Lobel.
The weekly toddler program incorporates reading, singing, and playing while also allowing toddlers and their caregivers time to make new friends.
“The Hillsborough branch is exceptional," said Deputy Mayor Britting. "It maintains the traditional value of a library that we all grew up with where people can come sit, interact live, and learn. The branch also offers a number of digital services allowing people to engage in a more holistic way.”
The Hillsborough branch has scheduled many activities for children throughout the summer allowing children and families the opportunity to play board games, explore Snap Circuits, try building sets, work on puzzles, and more. These sessions will occur every Monday through August 14 from 2-6 p.m. Explore programs at SCLSNJ: https://sclsnj.libnet.info/events.
