Preschool storytimes were full of activity in October. We had a fire truck come for fire safety week. We continued with our stories and activities with the letters D and E. We had a Real & Pretend storytime that included some light Halloween references. Our crafts continue to use the die-cuts. Children and adults enjoy them and they work well with even the youngest children.
Our teen program for this month was a beginners knitting class on Columbus Day when school was out. Attendance was small but enjoyed by all.
We also had a craft program for children on Columbus Day. They created spiders out of black yarn (pompoms), black pipe cleaners and google eyes.
More than 40 pre-kindergarteners came for a special storytime from Ogg Elementary. I also went to Griffith Elementary as a “Celebrity Reader” for more than 90 kindergarteners.
National Game and Puzzle week starts Nov. 22. We will put out crossword puzzles and board games for school-age children and teens on the days we are open.
I enjoyed seeing the artwork at the joint children’s meeting for the summer reading club posters. That always helps with the planning.
We are looking forward to having a new part-time clerk start in November.
