Milford Memorial Library: Youth Corner
It is crazy to believe that we are already in July, and our summer programs are coming to an end soon. Check out what we have left at the Milford Memorial Library. First, we have Building Bookworms at 10:30 a.m. this Thursday, July 6. We are so excited to have Miss Holly from the Pearson Lakes Art Center take kiddos through the process of making painted paper bugs. Then Miss Becca will be in charge for the last two programs. The first will be Minds in Motion (sensory play) at 3:00 p.m. on Monday, July 10, and Building Bookworms: My, Myself, and I at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, July 13. The interactive craft for this storytime will be an express yourself poster. Lastly, our End Celebration for those who have completed the reading-activity portion will be from 11:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. on Sunday, July 16, at Bouncelandia in Milford. The deadline is Friday, July 14. All other prizes (without Bouncelandia) can be earned until Friday, August 4.
