Two good holiday ideas!

1. One of my patrons told me that she borrowed 25 holiday books from the library at the beginning of the month, took them home and wrapped each one individually. Each night, she and her girls unwrap one book & read it. The girls really look forward to the reading & having a book to unwrap makes it even more fun!

2. This was told to me by a 6 yr. old - "Super Secret Snack" - take a piece of white bread, 3 M&M's,- 2 blue & one red - peanut butter, and 2 skinny pretzels. Put the peanut butter on the bread, arrange the M& M's like a nose & eyes, place the pretzels at an angle at the top of the bread - antlers - and tada! - A Reindeer. He said it's taste very yummy too!

Cub Scouts

The best thing about Cub Scouts coming for a tour of the library...they pick up the puzzles & put them away! Their leader said that it is a skill they need to learn - to leave a place as good or better than they found it! Wouldn't it be great if all patrons followed that rule!
