โ€œLetโ€™s go fly a kite, up to the highest height!โ€ ๐Ÿชโ˜€๏ธ

Todayโ€™s story time was all about kites! We read "The Kite" by Mary Packard and "Kite Flying" by Grace Lin, then the kids made their own kites to take outside and fly.๐Ÿ’จโ˜

It was a beautiful day for stories at the library and a little kite flying!

It was so much fun returning to Villa Crest Academy for the first time this school year! ๐Ÿคฉ

We read "Dragons Love Tacos" and "Dragons Love Tacos 2: The Sequel" by Adam Rubin, along with "The Library Dragon" by Carmen Agra Deedy. The kids also made their own dragon eggs to take home!

Ms. Lydia also got to introduce them to Reading Dragons, our reading incentive program for Kindergarten through adults. ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ‰

What a great way to start the adventures this school year!

What a fantastic morning at our annual Back to School Bash and Resource Fair! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿซง

A big thank you to The Art of FuN - Northwest Arkansas' Elite Children's Entertainment Co. for bringing the foam party and glitter tattoos! The foam was a perfect way to beat the heat, and it was a hit all morning long.

There was so much to explore:
๐ŸŽจ An art table
๐Ÿ”‘ Keychain making with 100 Families Initiative of Johnson and Franklin County
๐Ÿชณ Real live hissing cockroaches from UAEX-Johnson County 4-H
๐Ÿ“ฆ A hands-on feel-and-guess box from Lake Dardanelle State Park
๐Ÿ“š Free books!

Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate the start of a new school year with us, and to all of our wonderful community partners who helped make the morning so much fun. We loved seeing so many familiar faces, and we can't wait to see you at the library again soon! ๐Ÿ“šโค๏ธ
