Summer Reading Kickoff Carnival

July 1, 2009 at 10:09 am (Library Programs, Uncategorized) ()

 You may be wondering why I haven’t posted for a while. SUMMER READING is my only explanation. I haven’t been reading anything but picture books because I just don’t have the time.

Last Tuesday, we kicked off our summer reading program – Be Creative @ the Library – with a carnival. It was an idea I proposed during our brainstorming session months ago).

Librarians, with the help of our S.A.I.L. (Service and Achievement in the Library) teen volunteers, ran several stations. I ran the water balloon toss station. Other included: Bean Bag Toss, Temporary Tattoos, Sand Art Necklaces, Boppers, Dolphin Ring Toss, Sidewalk Chalk, Duck Pond, Limbo Contest, and Bead Bracelets. We sent them home with ice pops.

    Wow! What a great idea. I bet the kids had a blast. Librarians across the country are so busy right now, aren’t we?

    Thanks for sharing your program!
