We have free Take and Make craft kits and free Take and Make STEAM kits available this fall on alternating weeks. Our supplies for these kits are limited, so we ask that families pre-register online beginning at 10 a.m. on Monday each week to pick up craft kits for the following week. More information and a list of our kits are available here.

We are also offering DIY Story Time kits beginning this fall. Families can pick up supplies to do their own story time from home, including song and fingerplay recommendations, coloring sheets, and die-cut letters. This is in addition to our Stories in the Studio and Cuentos in the Studio, our digital outreach initiative for children. New weekly episodes of Stories in the Studio are available now, and a playlist of our episodes from summer is available on YouTube. More information about our story times can be found here.

We are resuming our parent/child book clubs this fall via Zoom. We offer Girls Read for girls ages 9-12 with a caregiver and Guys Read for boys ages 9-12 with a caregiver. For September, our girls are reading The One and Only Ivan and our boys are reading The Giver.
