Looking for somewhere to take the kids to reignite or foster their love of books, check out Beaumaris library.
Nestled amongst the beautiful gum trees of Beaumaris Reserve, Beaumaris Library is a welcoming space for families to explore. Wander through the library and you'll discover the spacious, light-filled children's area tucked away at the rear. Low shelving makes it easy for little readers to browse independently, while cosy reading nooks invite families to curl up together with a favourite story. You'll find everything from board books for babies to picture books, junior fiction, comics, DVDs and educational resources for school-aged children.
Mamma especially loves how welcoming this space feels for young visitors. A large rug and colourful floor cushions create the perfect spot to settle in and enjoy a few books. While child-sized tables are set up for colouring, drawing and other quiet activities, making it easy to keep everyone busy. Before you know it, the kids will be slowing down, exploring and just enjoying spending time in the library, whether they're reading, creating or simply soaking up the calm atmosphere.
And for the older kids and teens there are comfortable reading chairs, quiet study spaces, public computers, free Wi-Fi and plenty of spots to sit with a laptop or catch up on some homework.
And, of course, Beaumaris Library has a fantastic range of family-friendly programs including Baby Rhyme Time, Storytime, school holiday activities and special events that encourage children to sing, move, create and discover. These sessions are a wonderful way to introduce little ones to libraries and meet other local families. Program availability varies throughout the year, so it's worth checking the current timetable before your visit.
Whether you're raising a tiny bookworm, looking for a quiet escape on a rainy day or simply searching for free family activities in Bayside, Beaumaris Library is well worth adding to your list.
