If you are a kid who likes bricks, blocks, and being boisterous, then you should come join the Building Buddies Brigade!
The community room is open weekly to allow children to get to know each other and play together using Edinboro's extensive supply of building materials. There is no supervision and no agenda: just a room full of building materials and enough space for everyone to have fun making something (and of course knocking it down). KEVA blocks, Lincoln Logs, Bankers Box Bricks and more will be available. Children of all ages are welcome, and parents can enjoy the chance to meet other parents in the community. Recommended age is 1 to 6 years old, although older children can accompany younger siblings.
You can always check out these great books for building inspiration!
