Snow Play Story Time: January 22, 2019

Books:
Bear & Hare: Snow! by Emily Gravett *
Hello, Snow! by Hope Vestergaard
Snowball Fight! by Jimmy Fallon
Snowbots by Aaron Reynolds
The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats *
Winter Woes by Marty Kelley *

Craft: Snowy Day Picture
This week's craft was based on The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats.  Kids were given a sheet of blue paper to glue on cotton balls for snow.  They then colored a child in a snowsuit cutout and glued it onto the picture.

Extension Activities:
- Go out and play in the snow!  Use this opportunity to talk about why we have to bundle up to go outside.
- If it's too cold to play outside, have an indoor snowball fight.  Crumple up used paper into wadded up paper snowballs and then have fun.


Notes --
- When gluing on cotton balls, remind your child to put the glue on the paper not the cotton balls.  This saves the glue for future use.
- Story Time was not held on Monday, January 23, 2019 as the library was closed in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
