Comfort Kits!
Announcing a new children's resource... Comfort Kits!
These kits contain sensory-friendly tools for neurodivergent customers or any customer who needs their visit to the Library to be a little cozier.
Each kit includes a weighted lap pads, noise-canceling earmuffs, visual timers, and fidgets. They are intended for users ages 3 and up.
You can find the kits in one of the cubbies above the Picture Book Topic Bins (along the wall).
These kits are intended for use in the Library. When you're ready to go, just return the kit to the cubby!
