If the afternoon needs a plan, Columbine Library in Littleton has a free one for the youngest kids. Discovery Play runs Saturday, Oct. 17, from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m., with hands-on STEAM stations that babies, toddlers and preschoolers work through at their own pace alongside a caregiver.
The library describes it as a self-paced program built to grow early science, technology, engineering, art and math skills through interactive activities, with the grown-up learning and discovering right alongside. It is listed under story times, so expect a relaxed room rather than a lesson. No registration is mentioned.
