The final days of August are always bittersweet for me, as I prepare to say goodbye to the lazy days of summer. I don’t know about you, but there just never seems to be enough warm sunny days for me to go outside, sit, and enjoy my latest library find. Of course, the library keeps busy all year long with programs for everyone young and old. Returning next week on Wednesday September 1st are our ever popular Toddler Time and Story Time programs. Designed to introduce young children to the world of reading, Story Time is for kids aged four to six and Toddler Time is for parents and kids ages three years and under. Each week the children explore various themes through stories, songs, games, and crafts. These themes range from daily tasks that children experience every day, such as picking out clothing to wear, to characters from popular modern children’s books, such as Piggy and Elephant. Both Toddler Time and Story Time run for six weeks, and registration is only $6.00 per child. If you haven’t already, sign the kids up today and come experience the fun.
Every year in September Alberta observes and celebrates Alberta Arts Days. Created to showcase Alberta artists of all types, Alberta Arts Days encourage Albertans to discover, experience, and celebrate arts in their community. The Brooks Public Library is excited to participate in this program and will be hosting classes and workshops during the month to promote local Brooks and county artists. On Thursday September 2nd at 12:05 pm, Rita Wildschut will discuss about the new Red Roof Studio located in the County of Newell. Everyone is welcome to attend this free session and drop ins are encouraged.
