We have had 12 to 14 children attending Wednesday morning preschool storytime. They are enjoying the alphabet theme. We are continuing to provide die-cut crafts at every storytime. The younger children love the gluing and shape identification. The older children color and add backgrounds and details.
A teen knitting program is scheduled for October 12 when school is out.
Pre-kindergarten children from Ogg Elementary walked to the library on September 16. The teachers provided me with their curriculum ahead of time, and I used their themes for their storytime. We did colors and shapes in September and we will do families in October.
Elementary children will get to do crafts on October 12.
We have requested a fire truck for storytime on October 7 in recognition of Fire Prevention Week.
We were able to purchase a large group of die cuts in September. I chose items that would complete our alphabet crafts but also have use for holidays and other thematic units. My favorite is a new bookworm. We will put the children’s first names on them for wall displays for storytime. We were also able to purchase new wooden puzzles for the children’s area and lots of new “people puppets” for storytime and other programming.
