ManaTales - Thursdays

ManaTales is a Mommy-and-Me style storytime at the Manatee Center in Fort Pierce, and it is a sweet way to spend a Thursday morning with your little one. The Manatee Center has added new sessions of this popular program, featuring Helping People Succeed.

Families gather in the outdoor classroom by the lagoon. Each session includes a themed story, a hands-on activity, and time for music and movement. It is a relaxed, friendly hour of smiles, songs, and stories, and a nice way for young kids to connect with the lagoon and its gentle residents.

As a bonus, each session includes free passes to the Manatee Center and a Gift Store discount, so you can stay and explore after story time.

On Thursday, November 19, there are two sessions to choose from: 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. to noon. The Manatee Center is at 480 N. Indian River Drive in Fort Pierce.

Space fills quickly, so reserve your spot ahead of time using the RSVP form on the Manatee Center's event page. You will be asked for the session time and the names and ages of the children attending. The center asks that families not bring food to the program. Drinks are fine, and there is a refillable water station inside.
