Story Time in August

We have lots of great stories to share in August! We are going to read about summer vacactions and trips to the museum and talk about our own summer vacations. What a better way to remember all of the fun we have had this year than with a journal! Come decorate a journal / scrapbook / memory book and think of all the things you can fill it with on Wednesday, August 14th!

August 21st, we will read about doing good deeds for others and celebrate "Be an Angel Day" with a craf that will inspire us to see all of the good things that we do for others!

August 28th will go do the dogs, literally! We will read books about dogs and make an adorable dog card that could be sent to someone and count as a good deed for the angel we made the week before!

Come, join us! We have story time every Wednesday at 10AM and 3PM, year 'round!

School memory book

Ah, school is back in session and life is about to get really, really busy! Take a moment to think about the years past and what your child is feeling now. What do they want to be when they grow up? Where will they live? Take some time to talk with your child and write down what they are thinking and feeling.
Who has time for that? There's homework and practice to get to!
That is where we come in! Join us anytime on Saturday, August 24th to create a school memory book. It won't take long to create a treasure that you can keep updating through the years.
