OverDrive Kids

Parents, RELAX. Especially for kidlets, the Overdrive eReading Room offers a safe browsing and reading zone. Showcasing only children's content, kids get to the titles they want faster, then browse, sample, place holds and borrow. Oh, and it’s totally age-appropriate for their year group and reading level.

Virtual Kids Activities

Our kids activities have gone virtual!

You can have your own Baby Rhymetime at home by viewing our Baby Rhymetime videos, featuring our own young people’s services librarian, Liz. Each week we are posting our Storytime story and activity, which is a craft made from easily found objects in your own home, created especially for our community by Robyn.

If your kids are missing LEGO Club, that’s gone virtual too! Each week Robyn posts a video where you can share LEGO creations in the comments on Facebook, or by using #vincentlibrarylegoclub on Instagram.
