Keeping Up With Kids
They’ve been having fun in Durand this summer, learning and creating, reading and playing all about water. In this picture, presenters from Beaver Creek came to talk about invasive species and how kids can help keep waterways clean.
Storytime was also a big success, with plenty of time for puppets, books, and learning about water: Please send in your photos and stories about your SLP programs (langby@ifls.lib.wi.us)! And remember you can come share about them in person at the Idea Swaps: August 20 in Prescott and September 15 in Hawkins! Register by sending an email to registration@ifls.lib.wi.us.
