Afterschool Craft: Let it Snow!

Submitted by Penny A on Thu, 01/05/2012 - 1:53pm

 It may not snow outside this Wednesday afternoon, January 11 at 4:30 pm, but children can join us inside the Children's Activity Space to create their own snow.   We'll be making artificial snow.  We'll also make a fun snowman from paper plates that children can take home.  We'll also have some hot chocolate with marshmallows for a winter treat.  Tickets are required.  They are free and available at the Kids Information Desk starting 30 minutes before the program.

Today @ Toddler Storytime

Submitted by Christine Turner on Wed, 12/28/2011 - 12:01pm

I had the opportunity to cover the Toddler Time program for Ms Susan this morning. 

In case you missed the program, I wanted to remind you that we have an additional Toddler Storytime at 1:30 pm today. 

The theme this week is snow, and I have a fun craft to share. I hope to see you this afternoon.

Throughout the month of December, we have been celebrating winter during storytimes. 
Ms Susan and I have enjoyed sharing books with families about snow, artic animals, and the winter holiday season. The children have also created various winter crafts. Photographs can be viewed on our Flickr account.
 

Snow Day

Do you guys remember the snow we had at the beginning of the month? The Aldine Branch staff sure does. In fact, we made a video highlighting how we spent our breaks on that day.

You can check it out on our YouTube Channel as well, along with other videos.

Children created watercolor snowflakes at storytime this week.  Afterwards, we sprinkled fairy dust (salt) on top of them. This technique is used to make batik fabric.  The children had so much fun that we will surely do this project again!
