Maktaba is not a traditional library. We are a space where imagination comes to life through books, play, and thoughtfully conceived programming for children of all ages. We encourage children to explore the world and use creativity to reflect on their experiences. We also encourage children to contribute to their community by providing outlets for their natural curiosity and fostering dialog.
At Maktaba, as you move from room to room you hear the sounds of parents reading to their children in a variety of languages. From our Makers Room your hear the sounds of children busy crafting, experimenting and engineering. In the kitchen, families sharing their children’s snacks can be heard discussing the challenges of parenting. Step outside and you see we have incorporated outdoor play and learning into educational activities in our community garden, where from October to April our children make the desert bloom. Children plant, care for, and harvest vegetables, herbs, and flowers that we then use for cooking adventures and art activities. Rewrite in more professional way
