1000 Books Before Program Make-Over

 

Our 1000 Books Before Kindergarten Program is getting a make-over! 🌱This is a FREE, no hassle, nation-wide program to encourage parents to read at least one book daily to their children from birth through age 5. Come by the library any day to sign up! If your child is already signed up, bring them in to have their photo added to our Reading Tree!

Once your child is part of the program, we celebrate every 100 books with a picture posted on our Reading Tree and on Facebook. Every book counts! Even if it is the same book over and over and over again!

Exploration Place has Cancelled

We just got a call this morning that the staff member from Exploration Place is sick and they are going to have to cancel their program.

We are moving forward with other Ocean themed activities. There will be a movie on bioluminescent and fluorescent fish in the storytime room. Lots of seashell crafts. Other ocean themed crafts, origami, coloring pages and activity sheets.

Yes, we are bummed, but are having fun anyways!
