Your Family Guide
to Florida & Beyond
since 2016

Through the holidays, gnomes hide all over the Showroom on Level 2 of IKEA Miami, and kids can hunt for them at their own pace. The self-guided scavenger hunt is free, needs no registration and runs from November 1 to December 31, an easy add-on to a holiday shopping trip or a meal at the Swedish Restaurant.

An interactive storytime for families with children up to 5: stories, songs and activities that show how reading together builds vocabulary and early literacy skills. It's run with FIU's Center for Children and Families and brought to you by The Children's Trust, and the library lists it as sensory-friendly. No registration required; questions: the branch at 305-442-8695.

A LEGO STEM challenge for kids 5 to 12 — the library supplies the bricks, kids supply the creativity. It's an after-school hour at the Coconut Grove branch, and the club meets again on Nov 17 and Dec 1. No registration required; questions: 305-442-8695.
