Programs for Children

 

Book Bucks

Book Bucks is our school year literacy program. Write down books you read throughout the year and get points, to be spent at our annual Book Bucks Auction in May. Win books, craft kits, games, toys, gift cards, and more! Each year's selection of auction items is more eclectic than the last. Pick up a form at the library and start keeping track of your books any time during the school year.


Little Listeners

Our newest program, Little Listeners, is for children too young to read. Adults read to the young non-readers and complete the Little Listeners Form. Each completed form may be exchanged for a small prize. Ask for a form at the desk.


Preschool Class

Preschool class is for children aged 3-5. We meet every Monday during the school year (from Labor Day to Memorial Day) at 11:00. We do some reading, games, a small craft, and sometimes a snack. Class runs about one hour and registration is not necessary.


Saturday Fun

This program is for school-age children and takes place every Saturday during the school year. The fun starts at 1:00 p.m. and class is limited to 12 children. Class fills up so get here early as registration is not necessary. Books and cookies will follow.


Game Day

For children from kindergarten to age 12. Held on Mondays at 4:00 p.m. during the school year.


Robotics Class

The Robotics class runs several weeks, several times a year. The class is limited to 10 participants, ages 10-13. Class is on Saturday from 9:30-12:30. Registration is necessary, so sign up at the desk.


Summer Reading

Held annually for 8 weeks in the summer. Themes vary by year.
