Kimball Library News 6/3/19


T/weens are invited to give back to the less fortunate by knitting and crocheting with us on Mondays from 3-4:30 PM. Projects to make and give away may include bunnies knit from squares, hats, sweaters, booties, or squares to contribute to baby blankets. If you already know how to knit or crochet, bring your needles and yarn. If you are new to the craft, come empty-handed so we can tell you what to bring next time and how to get started.

Register t/weens once and their names will stay on for the summer. Please drop us a line or a quick call on weeks they will be away or not participating.

OUT OF THIS WORLD CRAFT: Make a flying saucer and you're off to another planet in minutes! Build the best UFO ever made but don't forget to come back to Earth! We'd miss you!  Children entering kindergarten through grade 5 in the fall of 2019 may register and participate in this crafty alien challenge – It’s Out of This World.  This event will take place on Thursday, June 27th, from 6:30-7:30 PM.  Sounds of ‘60’s Invasion’ will be wafting through the walls to make this an upbeat and outta this world experience. Stories will also be part of this fun little package.

This is a 'UNIVERSE OF STORIES' summer reading event sponsored by The Friends of Kimball Library.

OUTTA THIS WORLD GAMING GALAXY: Come for all or part of the time allotted for a galaxy of gaming choices. Youth will be divided up by ages (younger children will not be playing teen rated games). Some games will be happening in the children's room and more mature game options may be happening in the meeting room. POSSIBILITIES may include Mario Kart, Rocket League, Super Smash Brothers Brawl, Wii Party, Wii Sports, and more. Join us July 1st, July 17th, and August 7th from 6-7:30PM.  Get your game on!

Please register ages 9 and up or at a minimum entering grade 3 in the fall and choose one, two, or all three sessions. Invite age-appropriate friends to register with you. Who will be the STAR? This, too, is a 'Universe of Stories' summer reading event sponsored by The Friends. 

STEM ENGINEERING LAB: Join us for some time building, exploring and designing with our STEM building supplies. Whether you're a pro at science, technology, engineering and math or you are just being introduced, you'll love expanding your brain power with our magnetic tiles, brain flakes, KEVA planks and marble runs.
Anyone under 3 must be supervised by an adult in the room at all times due to small objects (marbles) as potential choking hazards.
Swing by anytime in the window to enjoy these STEM toys on July 3 between 3:30 and 5:30 PM. You are never too old for creative engineering time.
