Spider plants, Spider plants,
We have too many spider plants.
We had one, that was fun,
But it cloned itself a ton.
Please help!
We feel like we’re overrun!

Is this a song?
Yes it is,
Now it’s time, for a pop quiz.
Do they like direct sun light?
No, they just like it bright.
Hey, there
Please take some spider plants.

Will they grow in a house?
Yes, you can admire them from your couch.
How often do they need a douse?
About once a week, on that, we can vouch.

Spider plants, spider plants
Friendly indoor spider plants
Please come and take some now.
Please help,
We have too many spider plants.
Too many spider plants~

It's almost back-to-school time, and for some that means a return of the fidgets and restless energy.

Give your hands something to do with Origami!
This paper-folding art, originating in Japan, helps build dexterity along with medium- and fine-motor skills.

Our Origami classes are open to all ages and skill levels, and take place every Wednesday at 4:15pm in the Children's Library, downstairs.
