For those who do not have preschool story time craft supplies at home, we have Story Time Supply Kits available starting January 4th. This kit will provide child safety scissors, liquid glue, tape, 3 markers, and a glue stick. It also has a small “flannel board” on the lid to recreate flannel stories at story time.
Pick up your kit through curbside pickup, along with our usual Story Time craft kits.
Each winter we host a month long community reading event we call On the Same Page. Basically, we hand out hundreds of copies of a selected book and then spend a month exploring it through activities, lectures, concerts, and contests. Think of it as a county-wide book club. Read with your neighbors and friends, talk about what you read, and come and join in the fun.
Our Kick-Off Kits will be available starting Friday, January 29th, so make sure to come pick them up!
We’re doing group critiques in January! Submit your work to the Google Drive folder by January 4th. We’ll be meeting on Monday, January 11th at 4:30 p.m to do group critiques.
This month we will be reading Half Magic by Edward Eager. We will meet via Zoom at 6:30 on Thursday January 7th.

About twice a month we’ll take a look at a topic with books from our catalog, then go out into our neighborhood and see if we can find someone to tell us more about it.
This time we’re talking about machinery at Fat Cats! Many thanks to them for sharing with us.
