## About

Brick Buddies Storytime mixes three things little kids love: stories, LEGO building and the pool. Families gather in the Arnold Recreation Center's Party Room for read-alouds and LEGO play, then move to swim time with their little one. The session is aimed at children 4 and under with a parent or caregiver, runs on the first Friday of every other month, and the December date falls during the run-up to the holidays, a nice break from shopping. Rec Center members come free and non-members pay a small fee, with children 4 and under free. Spots are limited and must be booked ahead by phone; bring swimsuits and towels.
