Tuesday, May 6, 3:45-4:45 pm

Reading to a dog is a wonderful way to build reading skills and confidence. Readers ages 5-12 can sign up for a 15-minute slot to sit down and read aloud with Murphy, a registered therapy dog. Bring a favorite book or try a new one from our collection. 

Open to ages 5-12 and their caregivers. Registration is required. Please sign up for your time slot here

 

Monday, May 12, 1-2 pm

Danielle of Hoop Elation will show off her hoop skills, and then it's time to get hooping! Participants will learn beginner-friendly hoop moves and creative movement exploration exercises, partner/group activities, and games. Hula hoops will be provided but we ask participants to keep in mind that supplies are limited. Ages 6+. Children under 8 years old must have a caregiver present.

 

Saturday, May 17, 10:30 am - 2:00 pm

For children and their caregivers. Have a young (pretend) vet, hair stylist, or farm-to-table chef in the family? Flex those imagination muscles by engaging with our variety of dramatic play stations set up around the library. Think "pop-up children's museum" meets "supercharged literacy zone."

Pretend play is a great way to practice emerging literacy skills, incorporate new vocabulary, and see/use printed language in everyday situations.
Drop-in and play anytime between 10:30 am-2:00 pm.
