Move & Shake Storytime

Get ready to move and have fun with this storytime.  We have shakers, scarves, bells, and sticks. 

Explore & Play

Start the morning with open-ended free play to spark your child's imagination! We provide a variety of toys -- trucks, rockets, blocks of all kinds, tactile toys, pretend foods, and more. This moment of unstructured play fosters creativity, encourages children to explore the world in their own way, and allows children to socialize with their peers. Explore & Play also offers an opportunity for the adults to engage in meaningful play with their children and form connections with other caregivers. 

The doors will open at exactly 9:30 and we will begin to pick up at 10:00.

Baby Sign Storytime

Baby Sign Storytime is designed for babies and their caregivers. Miss Haley will introduce basic sign language for your family to use to facilitate communication before your baby can speak. This program uses a basic storytime format with practical topics to support you and your baby as you both learn helpful signs.

Snapology

Snapology provides children’s enrichment at its best with STEAM learning programs that engage children from ages 4 to 14.

Snapology instructors use fun, hands-on activities to teach Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics. While children are exploring robotics, coding, and design challenges using LEGO® bricks, K’Nex, and technology, they’re building skills that will help them throughout school and their careers. To kids, it’s just fun! 

Registration for this program is required to attend. Registration will open one week before the event date.

Bluebonnet Book Club

Are you a young person who enjoys reading, chatting about books, crafting, and/or snacking? Bluebonnet Book Club may be the perfect book club for you!

We'll read a Bluebonnet Award nominee, discuss the book, do an activity or a craft related to the book, and have a delicious snack. This program provides an opportunity to learn about new and interesting books and meet new friends.

Intended for grades 3-6. 

Writing Critique

The library’s Writing Critique Group offers writers the opportunity to share their work with their peers and receive feedback in a constructive setting. Attendees read aloud from their writing projects and receive notes, praise, and constructive criticism from their fellow writers. It’s our hope that the group will prove helpful to experienced and aspiring authors alike. Anyone 18 or older may join the group. Writers of all genres and experience levels are welcome, though we do ask that all content presented be kept between “PG-13” and “R” levels of propriety.
