Milford Memorial Library: Youth Corner
Halloween is almost here, which is perfect timing for Miss Becca to have another storytime. The last October Building Bookworms will be at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, October 24, at Milford Memorial Library. During this time, we will read some Halloween books, sing and move around, and make a candy corn pot to be filled with candy corn and pumpkins.
The library feature of the week are the many puzzles at MML. We have engaging and colorful puzzles for the kiddos that include fine motor, flat placement, regular size, and floor puzzles. Even though the youth puzzles cannot be taken home, the library offers many adult puzzles that can be checked out for more family fun at home. Please don’t hesitate to reach out any of the librarians at Milford Memorial Library (712-338-4643) or visit their pretty rad website (milford.lib.ia.us)!
