Programs for Children
STEM Club (Mondays 5:30-6:30pm). Resuming Oct. 9th!
Join us weekly to explore robotics and science. Build, design, and learn in a fun, family atmosphere.
Storytime and Craft (Tuesdays 10:30-11:15am). Resuming September 5th!
Explore action rhymes, songs, and stories. After books, gather with us at the back table for a special activity. No registration is required and siblings are welcome.
Starting September 5th, 2023, Storytime and Craft will be divided into two blocks for more structured and targeted programming. At 10:30, there will be a story and activity geared towards children 0-2. After that at around 10:45, children 3-5 can participate in a different story with a craft. Families with children in only one block do not need to stay for both; there will be a 5 minute transition break between. Both Storytime blocks combined will go for about 45 minutes.
Tales With T.A.I.L.S. with Caring Hearts Pet Therapy (Tuesdays 6-7pm)
Caring Hearts Pet Therapy program seeks to improve children’s reading and communication skills with the assistance of trained therapy animal teams. The children are encouraged to read, engage, and connect with the pet.
Bring your favorite book or two or choose one here at the library to share with one of our animal friends. Children will have the opportunity to read individually or in small groups with each of the animals at the session depending on the number of children registered and pets available. Animals are attentive listeners and their presence increases a child’s comfort in reading aloud.
Recommended for ages K-5th grade. No registration is required. Caring Hearts Meets Tuesdays at 6 pm.
All team members have completed volunteer training, practice sessions, and have current clearances.
