Paws for Reading March 26, 4:30-5:30 p.m. Calling all kids! Come read with our therapy dog, Sophie! Therapy dogs can reduce anxiety and improve focus & attention span. Sophie will be a nonjudgmental listener as you practice your reading and communication skills with her or have us read with you to her. Even if you are at the "pre-reading" stage and want to just tell Sophie a story, feel free to come give it a try. Bring your own book or choose one that we have available. Space is limited to four separate 15-minute reading sessions. Registration is required and opens two weeks before the program. Children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult. |
Crafting with Magoo Kids:
Marble Painting March 31, 3:00-4:00 p.m. It's not painting marbles, but rather painting with marbles. The process is fun and open-ended. It's easy to do. May be a little messy, so wear clothes that you won't mind getting paint on. Plus, the end result looks pretty good - a wonderfully abstract piece of art! No registration is required but supplies will be limited. Children 8 and under need to have a parent or adult stay with them. |
