Today's Storytime was a bit different for the littles. We had it in the smaller Juvenile room. It was nice and cozy.
After the singing and stories, the littles made mummies.
Just look how cute!

The STEM party today was SO MUCH FUN!
What is STEM you ask?
Thank you for asking. It stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Math
Kids get to measure, draw, design, and bring their imagination to life. They also learned how to complete circuits, connect switches, make things light up, make a noise or a motor run.
The blue thing is a Chomp cutter. It allows kiddos to safely cut cardboard and make things.
The kids all said they really enjoyed it and asked if we could do it again sooooo,
we will have a STEM party again in November!
We will have it on November 18th at 4pm in the meeting room.
Come join us for STEM fun.
