Children’s Programs

February 14, 2022August 13, 2016 by Ginni Nichols, Children's Librarian

On Thursday, Aug. 4th, we hosted an Outreach Program from the L.C. Bates Museum at Good Will-Hinckley in Hinckley, Maine, titled “Life in the 1900s” at the library. They had clothing to try on, games to play and crafts to do. It was a very hands-on program and they showed what items were used in schools in the 1900s. 

Here are some of the pictures from that day:
Our next event for children is an Ice Cream Social on Tuesday, Aug. 16th, at 11:30 bringing our Summer Reading to a close. 
In September we will have Ms. Jenn the Nutrition Detective come in and visit on Tuesday, Sept. 13th, at 10:00 for story time. She will have songs, stories, and a craft. 
All are welcome and if you have any questions just call us at 582-6894.
