Children’s Services
What has 10 beautiful paintings of animals, 2 bales of hay, several colorful hanging piñatas, over 5,000 items of interest to readers, 2 exceptional librarians and over 200 children?
The Bourne Library Summer Reading Program in the Children’s Room, that's what! Although the Canal Kids project is about as full as it can get, space is still available for the Bourne Book Buddies Program, which takes place every Wednesday, from 1-2 p.m. This summer, the Book Buddies, led by Library Assistant Terry Colon are writing their own books. The program will culminate with an author tea in August. This group is for rising 2nd - 4th graders.
Pre-K thorugh 4th graders are also still welcome to sign up for the regular reading program, in which they read one book, design a new book cover for the title and have this design placed in a notebook in the Children’s Room. For every “newly designed” book cover, the Friends of the Library will donate one dollar to Heifer Project International.
If none of the above appeal, why not try the Annual Guessing Game? This year, the child who guesses the exact or closest to number of beans in the bowl (behind the barn in the children’s room), will win a gift certificate to Whistle Stop Ice Cream Shop in Monument Beach. This contest ends July 23rd, so get in to the library and put your guesses in the box!
Don’t forget to bring your blankets and lawn chairs to the side lawn this Thursday, July 14th for the magic of “Marcus the Magician." 7 p.m. is show time for this extraordinary free show.
