Construction Time!

We have had a blast this week during the Summer Reading Program.  We focused on building and construction this week.  The kids had an opportunity to make construction scenes with stickers, 3-D paper buildings, and their very own miniature tool boxes.  We tried painting the boxes at Ironton, but that got a little messy so for the rest of the week, we decorated the tool boxes with markers and stickers.  The kids seemed to really have fun with this! We also had materials that they could build with like legos, foam blocks, magna-tiles, K'nex kits, 3-D puzzles, and more! Check out some of the pics below:

2017 Summer Reading Opening Party!

We had a blast during the Opening Week of the 2017 Summer Reading Program!  We made Earth Mobiles, played with Legos and K’nex sets, sang and danced with Dino O’Dell, and signed up for the Summer Reading Club.  We also talked about different things that help make this world a better place.  Some of the things the kids said are: recycling, picking up trash, growing food, robots, and doing dishes.  Tune in next week to find out how our Construction Time programs go!
