Children's Activities

2008


Texas Reading Club Jublilee!

Kick-off for the Summer Reading Program is May 31st

Children age 2- completing 8th grade 

sign up to count the number of books or the time they spend reading to earn books and prizes.  

May 31st to August 2nd.  Awards will be given on August 9th.

Read-To-Win

READ TO WIN is held at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Each session is designed to promote literacy in young children 18 months to 5 years of age.  Children are introduced to the exciting world of books through stories, finger plays, song and puppets.  Every 4th week visit will earn the child a free book of their choice.  Parents or caregivers attend the program with the children. This is an excellent opportunity to start children on a lifelong adventure of reading!

 

Due to other library commitments there will be some days the Read to Win will not meet.  Please feel free to attend one of the other days that week. See you there!!

   Can Do Project

 

The Children's Department sponsors the "Can Do Project", an aluminum can recycling project.  Aluminum cans can be brought to the library during regular operating hours.  The money raised is used to purchase new children's books for the collection.  Books purchased with project funds have a "Can Do Project" gift plate in the front.  Do your part to keep our children buried in good books!!
