Mustang Library - Scottsdale Public Library

The early learning play space at the Mustang Library provides children and their families with opportunities to interact with fun and engaging toys, manipulatives, and books. This welcoming space also has an outdoor patio to extend the play and engagement outside. Mustang Library offers our parent/child workshop called Stay & Play which focuses on the core components of the Family Place Libraries™. In addition to Stay & Play and a multitude of regularly scheduled storytimes, there are numerous parent-child interactive programs (enhanced storytimes) under our Knowing & Growing programs umbrella. These enhanced storytimes are comprehensive programs that utilize literacy strategies, books, songs and rhymes, as well as play-based interactions to support development and understanding of social and emotional development, children’s approaches to learning, and science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) concepts. When parents and caregivers have opportunities to actively engage with their child in the learning process the impact on their child’s growth and development is unparalleled.
