Spotlight Program!

DINOvember

Tuesday 11/28 and Thursday 11/30

10:15 - 10:45 am

DINOvember is coming to Wilton Library! Children ages 3-5 are invited to join us a dinosaur themed story time. Children and their caregivers will sing and dance to songs, listen to stories, and create their very own dinosaur fossil to bring home. Grab your paleontologist tools and head on over to this story time before it becomes extinct! Registration required: Tuesday OR Thursday

Did You Know?

The Children's Library now has a Random Acts of Kindness jar. Kids and adults can pull a RAK idea from the jar and try to complete it. Each completed RAK earns kids a ribbon to tie onto our kindness wreath that will hang in the Children's Library.

Spread the love!
