Sensational Playtime!  
1:00 PM  Old Town Library  
Sensory play supports language development, cognitive growth, fine and gross motor skills, problem-solving skills, and social interaction. Plus, it's FUN!  Explore a variety of sensory activating experiences with your child in the storytime room. 

Animal Afternoon  
3:00 PM  Council Tree Library  
The library has gone to the dogs (and cats and other story-loving critters)! Kids K-5 are invited to read to friendly animals and find your new book buddy! Furry (and not-so-furry) friends will be ready to read for 40-60 minutes, so stop by early.

A Craft and a Movie!

Learn how to recreate natural bioluminescence from the depths of the ocean with an LED light and make a fun anglerfish at the same time. Jamie Hudson, a PhD scientist and crafter, gives an introduction to electronics and semiconductors while lighting up the lure on an anglerfish.

Featuring the voices of Oscar-winner Whoopi Goldberg and Oscar-nominee James Woods, "Mia and the Migoo" is a stunningly beautiful, hand-painted animated feature film featuring the mysterious, almost fairytale world of "Migoo."
