We had a wonderful day with Ms. Connie from the Science Center. We played with the Library's new science toys, while we waited for the program to begin. We pretended to be a veterinarian, a doctor, a nurse, a scientist, and a bug biologist. Tyrannosaurs Rex received his much-needed dental check up! Then Ms. Connie read us a story about trees and talked about how they could be made into paper. Next, WE ACTUALLY MADE PAPER!! We were able to take the paper home, along with our treat bags and a new book "Paper and Tape Crafts". SOOOOOO MUCH FUN at the Library!!

WOW!! So much fun today with our learning to move our bodies to be healthy. We learned how to "hula hoop", exercise to music, watch an acrobat perform, played the parachute game and discovered we need to exercise our brains to keep them healthy, too. The Library has lots of books we can read to exercise our brains. We also need our sleep to stay healthy. The craft was making germs. Our surprise take home gifts were jumping ropes and hula hoops! Watch out Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, we are going to teach you how to hula hoop and jump rope!!!! Come into the Library to pick up your flyer about how to get enough exercise. Our gift books for today were "A Day in the Life of a Nurse" and "Nurse Nancy". WOW!
