Summer Reading Program Week Three

June 27, 2022Eventscrafts, kids, summer reading program, teensMarguerite

It’s hard to believe that we’ve already finished two weeks, but there are four weeks to go. There’s still plenty of time to sign up!

Maker Monday

We will write our names with natural materials. If you want to bring along small amounts of grasses, leaves, or other natural materials to use, feel free. Please only harvest with permission; don’t pull up your neighbor’s flowers.

We will also have a trail mix bar. There will be no nuts or peanuts, but we can’t guarantee everything was produced in a nut-free facility.

Toddler Storytime

Our monthly storytime for ages 18 months to 3 years with a baby theme.

Teens & Tweens Thursday

We will make beautiful handmade journals.

Coding Club

There is no leader for Coding Club this week. If you want to get together to work on your projects, you may, but there will be no one to guide you.

Preschool Storytime

Enjoy stories and crafts for ages 3-6 with an Independence Day theme.

Drop-in Crafts

We will have a cool 3-D paper campsite and a campfire craft for you to put together.

Valentine’s Day is coming soon! Although we are open to the public again (Yippee!), we are not doing in-person programs yet. So, we will be putting together packets of fun for pre-readers and readers. Each packet will have coloring pages, worksheets, a craft, a recipe to try at home and some candy! You can pick them up in the lobby of the library starting at noon on Friday, February 12th. They will be there until we run out.
