Storytime with Ms. Alyssa

Hi friends! Kick up your feet and relax because next month’s Slime Club is taking us to the beach with fluffy sand slime! We will add sand to our slime for a completely new sensory experience. All are welcome!

See you today at 2! The Little Bookworm

Drum roll…next month’s club is all about using primary colors to unlock a world of colorful possibilities and another layer of science 🔬🧪

[Image is a black and white poster with a graphic of three primary colors of red, blue, and yellow, with an imagine of rainbow slime. The text reads “Slime Club: Join us each month to make a new slime to add to your collection! No registration required. This month: color mixing lab! Using three primary colors, explore combinations to unlock a world of more colorful possibilities. June 13th at 2:00 PM. The Little Bookworm Bookstore.”]

I loved sharing stories, singing, dancing, and rhyming with you all at Wonder Universe! Excited for more in the future ✨ Thanks again, Wonder Universe!

Thanks to Miss Alyssa for leading Story Time last Saturday. The kiddos loved it!

We can't wait for more fun with her in the future! 😊

A reminder for families that MCPS summer nutrition programs will be available throughout June, July, and early August. ☀️

Well friends, summer reading is officially here! As we get out of school and start summer, it’s a great time to check out your local library’s Summer Reading Program!

Your local librarians have been working hard all year, planning fun activities, special performers and experiences, and lining up some amazing prizes! (Grown-ups, there’s a program for you too! 😉)

The Summer Reading Program is designed to help children retain some of their skills and knowledge learned through the school year. Each year, children tend to “slide back,” during the summer, but reading all summer long can help prevent this summer slide! And you get cool prizes and free programs too 🤩

This year’s theme is Unearth a Story, so…let’s dig in! 🪏🦕🦖 📚
