Washington Park Branch

Washington Park - Children's Area, Washington Park - PLANET

Explore hands-on, play-based learning experiences with PBS KIDS that build early literacy, math, executive functioning, and social-emotional skills. Recommended for ages 3-5.

WUCF, your local PBS station, hosts this hands-on event helping families build kindergarten-ready skills through play and exploration.


On My Way to K (OMWTK) is a free, hands-on family engagement event hosted by WUCF, your local PBS station, designed to help children build the skills they need for kindergarten and beyond.

At this drop-in style event, families can explore interactive “learning worlds” inspired by PBS KIDS programs, where children learn through play, creativity, and discovery. Activities focus on key areas like early literacy, math, science, and problem-solving, all designed to be fun, engaging, and easy to recreate at home.

Caregivers will discover that learning happens in everyday moments. Whether you’re counting snacks, noticing patterns, asking questions about the world, or telling stories, you’re already building your child’s skills.

OMWTK is designed for children ages 3–5, but activities can be adapted for younger and older siblings. Families are encouraged to move at their own pace, follow their child’s interests, and enjoy learning together.

Come play, explore, and discover just how ready your child already is.

About the branch

LYNX Bus Link 21 Carver Shores
LYNX Bus LInk 302 Downtown Disney Direct

Washington Park Branch serves the Carver Shores and Metrowest areas, along with the many other subdivisions and local businesses surrounding it. The Washington Park branch has a history that dates back to 1924. It is a combination of the former Booker T. Washington and Washington Shores Libraries. The two branches combined as one and opened in this current location on April 11, 1984. Although small, the glass walls on the front and back of the building create a bright, airy and comfortable atmosphere.
