After a busy summer, the Children’s Department of the Shawano City-County Library will begin weekly programs once again for the fall.
Baby & Me resumes at 10 a.m. Sept. 2. This weekly 15-minute program is geared to the library’s youngest patrons: babies through 2 years old and their parents/caregivers. Exposure to the rhythms of language and music can help introduce very young children to books and reading. Board books, traditional rhymes, basic finger plays, tickles, bounces and activity songs are utilized.
Story Time begins at 10 a.m. Sept. 3. This is a theme-based, 30-minute program for children and their caregivers. Stories, songs, finger plays, flannel boards, puppets, dancing, and making a craft are all part of the fun. All ages are welcome.
Gather ‘Round will begin at 10 a.m. Sept. 4. Gather ‘Round is a 30-minute themed program for children and their caregivers. Hear stories, do finger play and flannel board activities, dance and make a simple craft. All ages are welcome.
Read to a Dog is an once-a-month Saturday activity that resumes at 10:30 a.m. Sept. 13. Children sign up to read to one of our carefully selected dogs for 15-minute time slots. Pre-registration is encouraged, but walk-ins are allowed as the schedule permits.
Please note that programs will not be held on the following days: Nov. 25, 26, 27; Dec. 10, 23, 24, 25, 30 31; and Jan. 1.
All programs at the library are free.
