Summer Reading Club Finale

This last week was the end of this summer's Summer Reading Club and the Library had a party for the kids. There were songs and then each kid got a paper with boxes for different locations in the children's area in the library and the children's stacks. The Library Game, as it was called, was a scavenger hunt through the children's area. At each location listed on their paper, the children had to find the envelope filled with stickers. Then, each child took one sticker from the envelope and put it in the appropriate box on their paper. It was great fun. After the kids found all their stickers, they were led through the bowels of the library to stand in line for cake and lemonade, which they took back to the storytime room to enjoy. Summer Reading Club has been a sweet idyll this summer - I try to carry the joy and peace of it with me always...
