Read, Play, Grow

  • Anne O'C. Albrecht Nature Playscape 1904 Concourse Drive St. Louis, MO, 63110 United States (map)

Read a book, put on a puppet show, tell a story on a flannel board; there is no wrong way to read together. If you’re tired of reading the same books, or need new ideas for engaging your child during read alouds, join the St. Louis Public Library in Forest Park’s Anne O’C. Albrecht Nature Playscape for Read, Play, Grow. We provide the books to read along with puppets, flannel boards and flannels to interact with in a “come and go as you please” environment. The Early Childhood Outreach Team will be available to answer questions, give suggestions, and to show how much fun reading is!

Ideal for caregivers of children ages 0-5.

Sensory Considerations:

  • Potential for close proximity and shared spaces with other participants

  • Some bright colors and loud noises
