LEGO Program!

 
 Time to hang out and BUILD!

 

 

Happy Birthday ELMO!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally, after weeks of trying to celebrate Elmo's birthday, it stopped snowing long enough for us to PARTY!  Children listened to Elmo LOVES You! by Sarah Albee, did a birthday cake finger play, made crafts, had snacks, and of course DANCED! A special thank you, to Riya and her mom, for their handmade birthday card to Elmo.

Preschool Storytime

 
Children listened to Folktales (The Fox and the Stork by Aesop & The Fox and the crab have a race, a Chinese folktale) and enjoyed a flannel board story; in additional to listening to Where is Bear? by Newman. Then they got sticky as they created their own foxes out  of triangles! :O)

Valentine's Day Party

 


 



 Children of all ages had a great time making valentine's crafts at the library last week. Some children decorated hearts with yellow, red, & orange tissue paper and had their valentine message: "My hearts on fire for....."; some children made flower bookmarks, but every child helped us decorate hearts (with favorite author/character/ library service/ favorite picture of them reading) for our 50 HEARTS 50 BOOKS for 50 YEARS of our library celebration!
