Birth Through Age 5

We also have a program for children ages birth through 5, following the same theme as above. This program is in partnership with Mitchell County Partnership for Children, and will be an at-home program. Parents may come to the library to sign their little readers up through May 31st. Starting the first week in June, parents come to the library once a week to pick up a craft and activity packet, weekly reading chart, and to check out books. The program runs through June 28th. On June 28th, the library will host a special program from Smoky Hills Public Television especially for pre-schoolers. Those who sign up for the Pre-K program will recieve more information.

Teenagers (13 Through Graduated Seniors)

Teens will have their own program starting Thursday, July 3rd. We will meet at the library at or around noon and have pizza, pop, and cookies, talk about books, do a craft, and just hang out. Teens can advise the librarian on additions to the YA section of the library, and get prizes for reading this summer. Teens can stop by the library any time from now until the end of June to sign up. The last Thursday for a free lunch will be July 24th.
