Story Time in Full Swing


story time imageStory Time is in full swing here at Cutler Library, meeting at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesdays or Wednesdays (when school is in session), for children age 3 - Kindergarten.

In looking at the school calendar, Miss Carrie-Anne discovered there is no school, and therefore no Story Time, on Wednesday, November 11, 18, and 25. What a bummer! If you are a Wednesday morning participant, please be sure to cross these days off on your calendar.

Pajama Story Time at the Library


image courtesy of clipartheaven.comOur first Pajama Story Time was a great success! The kids who attended were all comfy-cozy in their pajamas (as was Miss Carrie-Anne), while they did some "dancing" and listened to fun stories.

If you missed the first one, not to worry, we have our next Pajama Story Time planned for Thursday, November 5th. Stories and activities are geared for children ages 3-6. Join us at 6:30pm for lots of fun -- and don't forget to wear your jammies!

Kids will definitely gobble up this craft, as they serve two purposes. First, they're turkey napkin rings to make your table look festive. Then, add a marble and they become turkey racers! Whose turkey will cross the finish line first??

Craft kits are available Tuesday & Wednesday from 12 -8 and on Thursday, Friday and Saturday from open to close. Make your craft here or take it with you for some crafting fun at home!
