Welcome Fall!
I love this season! For me, it signifies new beginnings - a fresh start - more than the beginning of the calendar year. I was always the kid, and then the mother, who couldn't wait for the first day of school. As a librarian, I look forward to the routine of our storytimes. This fall, we are changing things up a little bit. Beyond Books: A Preschool Discovery Program, will give kids the opportunity to explore a topic more deeply with hands-on activities. Shake Your Rattle and Roll, Baby! will provide more music and movement for babies, toddlers, and their caregivers. We are optimistically making these plans, but will be flexible as these times warrant. Please speak to me if you have any concerns. - Patty
