Family Mornings
At Family mornings, adults of all backgrounds with infants and children of preschool age come together to read books, play, sing and chat. Once in a while there are some educational talks about children and parenting, but the library also has a lot of interesting and informative books and magazines related to the subject. We also offer a great selection on children's books!
The changing facilities are good at all the libraries and there is always coffee on the house.
Family mornings are once a week at the city libraries in Gerðuberg, Spöngin and Úlfarsárdalur, and twice a week at the library in Grófin. Below you can read more about each one.
The City Library collaborates with the open preschool Memmm. Memmm offers meet-ups in Gerðuberg and in the community centers in Aflgrandi and Bólstaðahlíð.
