Children’s Librarian Heather Baker will be offering a series of drop-in story times on Tuesdays at 10:30 in July and August, with each program geared to the summer reading program’s theme: “The Great Geek Summer of 2012” The story times begin on Tuesday, July 3 and end on Tuesday, August 7.
The schedule includes:
July 3 “Today Is Gonna Be a Platypus Day”
July 10 “Birds Behaving Badly”
July 17 “Super Heroes and Local Heroes” (with guest guide dog and
trainer)
July 24 “Sing-Along with Nappy’s Puppets” (in place of the regular
story time)
July 31 “A Galaxy Far, Far Away” (dressing up encouraged)
August 7 “Hanks & Balls & Skeins of Yarn” (for help in celebrating
the yarn bombing of the library)
Story time includes stories, songs, a short movie, a craft and a snack. The craft may be completed either before or after the story time; the craft room opens at 10:15 for early birds. The story times are free, and no registration is necessary. Participants are asked to come to the Children’s Room for a nametag before entering the story time.
