## About

Children decorate holiday cookies and then play at Christmas-themed activity centers during this hour-long morning program in the Spring Hill Branch meeting room. It is meant for young children together with their families, so caregivers stay and join in; the mix of a simple food craft and open-ended play suits toddlers and preschoolers well. Registration is required because space is limited, and it opens on December 2 at 10:30 AM. Latecomers are not admitted. The same program is offered a day earlier, December 15, at the East Hernando Branch in Brooksville.
