Sounds like fun! It would be great if some of these events could take place on the weekend so working mother’s and their children could be included…

Katie, I absolutely agree with you. Attending these events that our children would love is nearly impossible with a full time job!

Katie and Caryn,
We apologize that both of our Dora visits are taking place during normal working hours. This is a special program, and we had to work around Dora’s limited availability. However, we do offer a variety of weekend and evening programs that your family might enjoy. This coming Saturday, our branches are offering Mobile Making Art Workshop, Family Time, Captain Underpants, What a Wonderful World, Lego Family Block Party, and more! Several of our branches offer Pajama Storytimes in the evenings. Visit our online calendar of events at http://www.kdl.org/events to search for programs that might work for your schedule.
Thank you for your comments.

Is this only for 3-6 yr olds? My 1 yr old loves Dora.

Tom,
I just checked with the staff member that is leading the program, and she said you are welcome to bring your daughter. I hope you have a wonderful time!
