Easttown Library Hosting "Block Party" For Tykes

The Easttown Library is hosting Block Parties for kids. No there won't be music or food like a typical block party. These block parties are geared toward encouraging developmental skills in young kids.

Wednesdays Jan. 11, Feb. 8, and March 9 at 4:30 p.m. kids ages 3 to 5 are invited to come to the library to work enjoy block building while learning developmental skills.

Kids will learn cooperation, hand-eye coordination, balance, shapes, initiative, and more skills just by playing with blocks and having fun.

The library's new wooden block set was purchased on a grant through the Office of Commonwealth Libraries' Cruising to Kindergarten initiative, the library said.

Easttown Library is located at 720 First Ave., Berwyn.
