When I say to a parent, "read to a child," I don't want it to sound like medicine. I want it to sound like chocolate. —Mem Fox

Reading becomes a favorite treat as we explore early literacy through stories, songs, and a simple craft. This free program for children ages 3 to 5 is designed to provide kids a foundation for kindergarten, including helping them to develop important socialization skills. We strive to create fun and rich experiences that build a love of books, libraries, and learning that will stay with children for a lifetime.

Tweet, Tweet, Cheerio…

Bring your littles to develop their fine motor skills while creating a bird feeder and having fun! Kiddos will bend their pipe cleaners into shapes and then thread Cheerios onto the pipe cleaners. Tie it off with a ribbon to complete a one-of-a-kind feeder to place outside and observe the birds!

Psst... This is a great project to strengthen kindergarten readiness skills, including shape recognition and hand-eye coordination.
