Kids Events for Ages 11 and Under

While most of our offerings are online, don't forget to check out the library for take home craft kits!

Events

We might not be able to meet in person to see these performers live, but join us on Facebook for videos of some amazing performances & talks, as well as online story hours!

6th Day Creatures

6th Day Creatures is back! Tune in on our Facebook page to watch their video about the animal world, from scaly friends to furry creatures! Video will be available from July 1st at 10 AM to end of day July 5th.

Picadilly Puppets

Check out our Facebook page for a Picadilly Puppets video on the story of Katy and Kelvin Caterpillars’ metamorphosis from egg, to caterpillar, to chrysalis, to butterfly. Join them on their fascinating migration to Mexico and marvel as they return to the United States to lay their eggs, beginning the life cycle all over again. The story is narrated by Mother Nature and performed with hand and rod puppets. Video will be available from July 8th at 10 am until July 14th at 5pm.

The 6-8 age range will win fairytale-themed glow in the dark stars, and the 9-11 age range will win a projector lamp that projects a dragon onto a wall!
