The Place, located on the mezzanine floor in the State Library, is a colourful and fun area devoted to children, which has become increasingly popular among the little ones and their parents because of the free activities it hosts, like book readings, story telling, painting and drawing and other activities that children love. In fact, any child going to the Place will tell you that loves the place.

Some people are using The Place as free day-care leaving some children then unsupervised and unattended, which is like WOW! Which sort of parents are they? Most of the children, though, are supervised, however their parents/carers do not supervise them and the kids run wildly, shout wildly, and cry wildly during  part of the day. Please, parents, put into practice some of your parenting skills. The fact that The Place is a free place for children doesn't mean that they can act wildly.
