One Book Every Young Child and one Mole

Nearly 60 Radnor community members joined us for our One Book Every Young Child program on March 27th. Activities included learning some particularly odd facts about Moles, we read - What a Treasure by Will and Jane Hillenbrand, sang Mole songs, and transformed Lois Ehlert's story Mole's Hill: A Woodland Tale. We also set up stations for children to dig, and explore and create. Check out our video.




Special shout outs to Shayna Patel who assisted with the program and to Molly Carroll for her great photography skills. Finally, we wish to thank the family of Barry Goslin for his touching music.

One Book Every Young Child Program



On March 28 nearly 60 community members enjoyed our "One Book Every Young Child" program. This year the selected book was If You Were a Penguin by Wendell and Florence Minor. Miss Carlson led the group in several songs while Children's Librarian Abbe Klebanoff accompanied on her ukulele. The kids had a blast with the "Iceberg Relay" race, the Fish Toss, a craft and many educational side activities. Thanks to The Snakeoilers for original music!
