We’ve been enjoying puffin season in Maine through our livestream at the Activity Shelf! 🐧
Do you think there’s a dinosaur live stream we could have up later this summer? 🦖

Over the last few years we've had so much fun at Summer Reading Kickoff. There's always lots of art, messy play, and some things for those who don't necessarily want to get dirty. Not to mention... signing up for the Summer Reading Program!

We're so excited for next Saturday, June 6! Here's are just some of the things you can expect:
- Dinosaur Yoga with Tiny Trees Yoga
- Giant sensory bins & fossil exploration with Wonderfeet Kids' Museum
- Snacks with Scoop ‘N Chill Italian Ice and Come Alive Outside
- Dinosaur play with Clover Exploration and Rutland County Parent Child Center
- Musical instrument petting zoo with Green Mountain Music
- Tie-dye - we'll have a variety of shirts and drawstring bags, or bring your own item
-Making a pet rock
- Planting some seeds to take home
- Dinosaur bones (obviously)

Yesterday we focused on butterflies (and moths) at Storytime! We always enjoy our time afterward with our craft, sensory bin (getting messy not necessarily required), and bubbles!
See you next week for our berry (and somehow also bear-y) themed Storytime. 🍓🫐🍓
