It is designed for young children with a parent or caregiver, a good fit for preschoolers and toddlers who enjoy hands-on, messy fun and free play with other kids. The program runs for an hour. Space is limited and registration is required, opening two weeks ahead on December 1 at 10:30 AM. The library does not admit latecomers, so arrive on time. A matching session runs the next day at the Spring Hill Branch for families on the west side of the county. ## Similar picks in Tampa - [Cookies & Milk with Santa at Palm Harbor Library](https://grassyknees.com/tampa/activities/cookies-and-milk-with-santa-at-palm-harbor-library--listing-c35568b096dbf9bc2d70f8e1) — Thu, Dec 17 · 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM · Palm Harbor Library · Ages 4–9 · Free · checked Oct 16.
