We lit up the town today at STEAM & Stories! We read “If I Built a Town” by Chris Van Dusen, then plotted out our town buildings on a floor map with a few basics on planning and zoning 😉. Then we explored the basics of circuitry and engineered our own paper circuits to light it all up! Thanks to the families who joined us at our final STEAM & Stories session of the season; we appreciate you!

We missed our library friends at Paws to Read today, but it was still a great visit with Jeanne Buehler and we will start up again next fall!

Ms. Jodi got to snuggle these two handsome fellas and talk about future opportunities to connect Nevada Public Library and B.B. K9 School LLC!

Our preschool Storytime went “All Around Tiny Town” and our littlest readers explored BIG fun along the way!
From the bakery and fire station to the hospital, vet clinic, construction zone, post office, and even the zoo, every stop sparked imagination, learning, and plenty of smiles.
Thank you to all our tiny town visitors for another wonderful Storytime adventure! 🚒📬🏗️🦁🍞
