This week’s story hour expanded our learning about the tide cycle of a salt marsh and how different creatures adapt to live there. We read “A Day In The Salt Marsh” by Kevin Kurtz and also participated in a matching game after the story.
By matching the correct description from the story with each salt marsh creature on a display board, the children earned a grab bag full of miniature toy otters, crabs, seahorses and more! Working up an appetite during Storytime, everyone then headed outside to enjoy a snack on the library’s new picnic table.
Please join us for next week’s story hour when members of the Wiscasset Garden Club help us plant new flowers in the library’s Butterfly Garden. The last story hour before the Summer Reading Program begins is June 11, 2014. We are looking forward to many fun and exciting events with our “Fizz Boom Read” science-themed summer Reading Program for 2014!
