As the weather gets colder, it becomes\u00a0crucial\u00a0that I find great indoor play options in Terre Haute for my family.\u00a0If we don’t get out of the house, this SAHM goes stir crazy. Thankfully, the brand new\u00a0Youth Services Department at the Vigo County Public Library reopened just in time for winter!<\/p>\n

The library has once again asked to sponsor a\u00a0post and use Haute Happenings to help spread the word. We\u00a0are thankful that the library believes in our ability to reach families in Terre Haute, and we’re grateful for their support of Haute Happenings.\u00a0You can thank the library\u00a0for revitalizing this public space by sharing this post with friends!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Open House. Wednesday, January 27.\u00a0<\/em>3-6 p.m. <\/em><\/h4>\n

Staff will be on hand to conduct tours, light refreshments will be available, and there will be a drawing for a door prize. The community is invited to attend!<\/em><\/h4>\n

The girls and I spent a few hours playing in the new space, and we’re delighted to share the highlights with you. To\u00a0be sure I don’t\u00a0miss anything essential, the Public\u00a0Services Coordinator (Holly Curtsinger) offered to share what she loves about the new space. Holly is\u00a0truly an expert on how this space can and should be used. Not only did she\u00a0help design and plan the library remodel, but she’s also a mom to twin toddlers!<\/p>\n

Read on for highlights and more info!<\/p>\n

Holly: Families with young children will be glad to hear that there’s now a restroom inside the youth services department.<\/strong>\u00a0With the old design, the materials for children who had the most urgent toileting needs and the restrooms themselves were on opposite ends of the space. The design makes more sense now.<\/p>\n

Both restrooms are for men or women. One has a junior potty, a diaper changer, and jump seat for toddlers.<\/p>\n
