Kids

Sensory Friendly Browsing Hour

Join us for a special sensory-friendly hour at the library, held before public hours.

This dedicated time is designed to offer a quieter, calmer library experience for children, teens, and adults with sensory sensitivities, along with their families or guardians.

The library will be open only to registered participants during this hour, providing a safe, low-stimulation environment to browse, read, use the computers and explore before regular public hours begin.

Rising Voices: Public Speaking

Join TAG volunteer Rafaela to learn about public speaking in an informative 4-week workshop.

This program is designed to help tweens and teens improve their presentational articulation, pacing, and confidence. It will also go over strategies to raise one’s voice, reduce stage fright, and when to use hand gestures. 

Please see our event calendar for more details and to register. Registration is required.

Art Explorers: Apple Stamping!

Tuesday, September 30, 10:00AM

Let's explore with some simple art supplies!  Rather than focusing on a specific project, we'll try out different tools and techniques each month.

This month we'll try our hand at apple stamping.  We'll be using washable paints, but please do not wear your finest!

Class begins at 10:00 and we'll clean up together at 10:45.

Recommended for ages 3 and up, with an adult.

World Smile Day

Friday, October 3

All day, while supplies last!

Each October 3, World Smile Day, a holiday that encourages people to be kind to each other, is celebrated.  For our part, the library is treating our young friends to a punny act of kindness by giving out children's toothbrushes and tooth-themed coloring sheets!  Stop by to show us your smile and pick up a treat for your pearly whites!

For kids of all ages, while supplies last.

Open Playtime in October!

Open Playtime returns with two dates this month!  Babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and their grown-ups can join us to enjoy the library's educational toys and each other's company!

Fridays, October 3 and 17 -- 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Stay the whole time or just drop in, but definitely don't miss the fun!

 

Halloween Parade (All Ages)

Kids and their grown up can show off their costumes during our annual Halloween Parade! This event will start in the children's department of the library and, weather permitting, head outside for a march around the municipal courtyard. The parade will start promptly at 11, so please be sure to come a few minutes early.
