Every Denver Public Library location

The toolkits, in the library's words

“We want all visitors to feel welcome and supported at Denver Public Library. Sensory Toolkits are available at every location.” “Just ask a staff member at the service desk during your visit.”

“Storytimes are a fun and engaging way for children to learn and explore, but we also know they can sometimes feel overwhelming. That's why we offer a Storytime Sensory Toolkit at every location.”

“These kits are designed to support children who may need a little extra comfort or sensory input during the program.”

  • The library says to ask at the service desk during your visit. Ask there how long you can keep the kit.
  • Check your location's page for storytime times.
