Elementary School Storytime @ MCPL - Virtual

In celebration of Earth Day!

We miss you! Join us for virtual Elementary School Storytime! These 25-30 minute afternoon programs are designed to delight children in Kindergarten through 3rd grade

Join us live for a special Earth Day-themed Elementary Age Storytime via Zoom! Filled with diverse stories and activities that promote and develop language skills and imagination, these programs encourage young children from Kindergarten to Grade 3 to develop a lifelong love of reading and learning.

We will be demonstrating how to make Seed Balls. A limited supply of materials is available; please call the Little Falls Library (240-773-9520) or the White Oak Library (240-773-9555) to arrange for pick up of a kit. Each kit contains 4 oz. Crayola air-dry clay, 1 oz. (1/4 cup)wildflower seed mix, and 1 oz. (1/4 cup) potting soil, and will make a good number of small balls. Thank you to the Friends of the Library, Little Falls for funding this.

Here are some books you might enjoy: Books about Seeds, Gardens & Earth Day's 3R's
