June Storywalk®

Posted by kimr on

Looking for an outdoor outing with the kids? Take a stroll at Gainesville’s Jaycee Park and enjoy this month’s Storywalk®.
Be sure to take the survey at the end of the book and follow the instructions. Your kiddos will think it’s pretty sweet!
Thanks Kayson’s Candy Company for sponsoring the Storywalk® in honor of National Candy Month!
This project is made possible by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (Grant #LS-252486-OLS-22) to the Texas State Library and Archives Commission under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act. (2023)
The StoryWalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library. Storywalk® is a registered service mark owned by Ms. Ferguson.

Posted by kimr on

We love seeing all of our school kids for summer break! Starting next Tuesday, our children’s classes will adjust to accommodate the older kids.

At 10:30 there will be two separate classes. Our regular preschool and under will be in the meeting room. Our school age friends will be in the children’s area.

At 2:30 all ages will meet in the meeting room.

The theme will be the same in each class for that week.

Hola amigos. We’ve had so much fun in our monthly bilingual story times! Due to our other summer classes, this program will be postponed until August. Be sure to take a look at our bilingual and Spanish collection to keep your new language growing through the summer.

Messy Toddler Day April 30, 2024

Posted by kimr on

Yesterday was our annual “Messy Toddler Day” at our children’s classes. After reading a messy book the kids explored sensory activities. This open-ended play time encourages the development of fine motor skills, helps kids understand their surroundings, and much more! Plus the kids had a blast getting messy.
