First Day of Autumn

On By

The library celebrated the first day of Autumn 2017 in two ways.

First the adults made fall colored paint dot painting. It’s something we have done before with the senior group we use to have and they loved it. This group also seemed to have fun!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The kids came to the library after school was out and make puffy paint and painted pumpkin magnets. The kids really seemed to like this craft!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Up next? Halloween crafts in October…

The Eclipse

On By

Along with many, many people world wide the library celebrated the Eclipse on Monday, August 21st.

The library had around 20 people [not bad for our little library] show up. We celebrated with our version of “eclipse” food. Moon pies, Sun Chips, Crescent sandwiches, Best Sandwich Dip on Earth and much more, it was all wonderful.

Everyone received a pair of eclipse glasses to watch the big event. As the clouds came and went we took our glasses off and on. We did not have a “Total” eclipse here, but it was pretty close. As to time got near to the our Total Eclipse we sat outside in lawn chairs and looked up at the sky. Everyone had a great time!
