September 24, 2025 -Another great group of children at "Story Time".  They are still working with the color "red" and getting to know their name and addresses.  Miss Denise talked about all the different professions of "Community Helpers", firemen, police officers, nurses, teachers, construction workers and support dogs.  We had two special guest, John Kiley, Beaver County Police officer and Krista Bennett, Library Board Member, with her support dog.   For their craft they colored a picture of a fire engine.  Thank you notes were decorated with stickers and signed, which will be delivered to the county police officer, nurses and firemen.  

October 1, 2025 - Bugs and Butterflies were the topic at "Story Time" today.  Miss Denise had several bugs and spiders she had collected and mounted on a poster and a jar with a few live bees and honeycomb for the group to talk about.  To begin the day, they start off with a little exercise by singing and dancing along with "The Fishing Song", "Hello Neighbor" and "Wally Ocha".  The books read were "First Look at Insects" and "Bee Dance".  The craft was making bug or butterfly magnets. 

October 8, 2025 - Story Time started today with Miss Denise asking each child their name and where they live.  Then they sang along with several nursery rhymes.  The theme was all about birds and the color orange.   Miss Denise read "What is a Bird" and then everyone went outside to make bird feeders.  The feeders were made by covering pinecones in peanut butter and then rolling them in bird seed.   The last thing today was for the children to find the color orange in the mural on the wall.
