Libraries rock! If you agree, registration for our 2018 Summer Reading Program at the Westerlo Library has begun.

Children who continue reading through the summer keep their brains active and enter school in the fall ready to learn and ready to succeed.

Many of the works on display illustrate local scenes that will be familiar to visitors of the exhibit.
Lego Club
Drop in on Monday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. to play and create with Lego. We supply the blocks; you bring the imagination. Miss Lee is also available for homework help.
Story time
Join Miss Lee on Wednesday mornings from 11 a.m. to noon for 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 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.
