February 8

Need a night off? Can't find a babysitter? Check out Saturday Night Live @ Katie's Kids! Saturday Night Live is a Saturday evening full of fun for children while families go out. Children can enjoy playing, having dinner with friends, and snuggling in for a movie.  
February National Dental Health Month

Dental hygiene is one of the most important things we can teach our children. Unfortunately, for a lot of parents, getting kids to brush and floss their teeth is like ... well, like pulling teeth. 
  • Preventing tooth decay.  The most important way to prevent tooth decay at any age is regularly brushing and flossing.
  • Tap is terrific!  The ADA will focus on encouraging children to drink more tap water. Tap water is the primary source of fluoride for many children.
  • Visit a dentist for professional dental care.

Lending Library


We would like your family to take a minute and notice some new books in our lending library.  The library includes books for both adults and children.  Some books will include a book buddy. If your child picks a book buddy friend, we have fun directions to follow in order for us to enjoy your adventures too.  Please feel free to share your experience with other friends or simply just read the book & snuggle with the book buddy.  

If your family has a book and book buddy friend your willing to donate, please follow up with Andrea.
