Small Hands, Big World

Kids learn about the world around them with their whole bodies.  This sensory play program introduces children, ages birth to four, to many new experiences, textures, materials, and sensations.  Little ones are invited to explore their world at this monthly program. This sensory program will be held the second Tuesday of each month from 4:00-7:00PM in the library's meeting room.

Early Out Art Club

We'll explore a variety of art techniques and working with different mediums.The first early out each month will be for K-2nd Graders. The second early out of the month will be for 3rd-5th Graders. If there is a third early on in a month, we will show a movie for all ages. Parents or caregivers are responsible for their student(s) making it to and from the program, but are not required to stay for the duration of the program. Sign up using the links below.

1000 Book Before Kindergarten

1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is an ongoing reading program to encourage parents and caregivers to read 1,000 books with their children before they enter school.  The program is based on research showing that the more children ages 0-5 hear books read to them, the more prepared they will be to learn to read in kindergarten. Parents sign up for the program at the library and receive reading journals to record how many books they read to their child. Once a reading milestone has been reached, the library rewards the accomplishment with a prize.  Once participants have read 1,000 books before kindergarten, they have successfully completed the program & have a jump-start on school and reading success!  Click the icon to sign up today!

Each month a student from kindergarten through sixth-grade will be chosen to curate a display in the library featuring some of their favorite books, pick out a new book for the library to buy for its collection, and have the opportunity to help Kling staff behind the desk for an hour on the day of their choice. The Kid Librarian will also be featured in our newsletter and on our social media.
