Westerlo Library Notes for Friday, December 18, 2015
The Westerlo Public Library will be closed on Thursday, Dec. 24, and Friday, Dec. 25. We will reopen our regular hours on Saturday. Happy Holidays.
Memorial brick fund-raiser
Stumped for holiday gift ideas? There is still plenty of time and room to add your memorial brick. This is a great opportunity to honor your friends and family, memorialize a loved one, or promote your business or organization. Your personalized, engraved brick will be displayed along our new walkway and patio in front of the library. Check out the bricks that have already been laid. Pick up a brochure at the library, or visit http://www.polarengraving.com/WesterloLibrary"www.polarengraving.com/WesterloLibrary to place your order.
After school
at the library
Join Miss Lee on Monday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. for homework help, games, crafts, puzzles, music, and a lot more. Programs will also include storytelling, hands-on demonstrations, and visits from special guests. Lee is also available on Thursdays from 3 to 8 p.m. for homework help.
Story time
Check out our new time on Wednesdays from 11 a.m. to noon. Miss Lee presents stories, songs, and movement activities designed for infants to children up to 5 years old. In addition to developing pre-reading skills, singing, moving to music, and playing instruments, the activites all help foster a sense of rhythm and timing that are essential elements in developing the part of a child’s brain that shapes math skills.
Story times are also a great opportunity to meet other parents of small children in Westerlo.
Technology walk-in Wednesday
Do you have a new Kindle or Nook but don’t know how to download books? Need to brush up on your computer skills or obtain basic skills? See Amy on Wednesdays between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., for free, personalized, one-on-one instruction.
