Hot Wheels

 Alameda County Library's Bookmobile program for Preschoolers in Child Care, "Hot Wheels," is accepting applications for their waiting list. The program provides library visits via the Bookmobile to children ages two-and-a-half to five years old, in Fremont, unincorporated Hayward, unincorporated San Ieandro, San Lorenzo, Union City, Castro Valley, Newark, Dublin and Pleasanton. Once a month, children and providers are able to choose from a wide range of materials for use in the child care home or center. Children listen to a story and providers learn more about storytime, books and storytelling. Hot Wheels is also providing workshops for child care providers and parents.
