As our Summer Reading Program is taking off, we had the idea to start adding the take-n-make craft instructions here! That way, if you missed out on any of our offerings you can recreate the crafts at home using your own supplies. Or, if you know of someone who would love the crafts we are doing, but they live far away, they can also recreate them from anywhere!
We have limited quantity for all our kits so they are first come, first serve. They are all optional!
Right now we are offering the following kits for summer:
Every Tuesday we put a new take-n-make out front of the library in our take-n-make bin in the “New Craft” basket. This craft kit is mainly geared towards pre-k through elementary, however, all ages are welcome to participate. We are able to offer a slightly larger quantity of these kits so registration is not required, but once they are gone, they are gone. Any leftovers get moved to the “Old Craft” basket in the bin. And those are also free to take if you missed one! You do not have to be participating in Summer Reading Programs to participate in these ones.
For our teens participating in Summer Reading, there will be 3 craft kits to take home. These must be pre-registered for because there is a limited quantity. Teens must be participating in the Summer Reading Program to get a kit. Registration for the May Kit-Junk Journals, opens on May 12th. To register, either stop in at the library or sign-up through your Beanstack account under “Events”. Once registered, you may pick up you kit. We can also leave them out curbside! The June Kit-Making Bubble Tea will be open for registration June 9th, and lastly, July 7th-Make Your Own Squishie will end our teen crafts for Teen Summer Reading. Registration for each craft opens on the day mentioned above!
The adult Summer Reading craft kits will be similar to the teens. There will be 3 take home kits, registration required before pickup.
