Week 1, Complete!

Well, our first week was a great success! Our mini-theme was called "Discovering Art", and we had lots of fun with books, crafts, and activities based on our theme!

The Junior Reading Club read Art & Max by David Wiesner and became artists themselves when they made chameleons like the one in the story. We punched holes in the lizards and then held them up to the wall to watch them blend in with their surroundings!

The Senior Reading Club learned that art takes manThe Composer is Dead by Lemony Snicket. They also learned about a art-form called Pointillism, and made their own art by using just tiny dots with a marker! After that we played an awesome drama game called "The Sneaky Art Gallery".
y different forms, like music and drama, and read

We also had a blast at All Ages Fun & Games. We made Treasure Soap, and played all sorts of active games!

So far we have 170 kids signed up, but you can still come to the library all summer to register. Our mini-theme next week is called " Exploring Near". Check out the Schedule page on this blog to double-check what's going on, and don't forget that our first Movie Matinee is next week! On Friday from 2-4 pm we'll be viewing "Rise of the Guardians".


Have a great weekend, and happy reading!
