On Saturday afternoon we headed to the library and got booked in to all the workshops we wanted for the Summer. I learned a few years ago NOT to ever go in the morning on the day they are released - it means LONG line ups to the door!!! So I always go in the afternoon when you don't have to line up at ALL. There are almost always a few tickets left for each class and I'd rather take that chance than stand in line for two hours!
We got all the classes we wanted which I was THRILLED about because this year the library got extra funding and the classes are FREE! So Abigail and Susannah are both off to several classes this Summer. My favourite of all is Abigails 'Fancy Nancy' tea party - where she gets to dress up all fancy including a hat and actually attend a tea party there :) and it's all based on the latest Fancy Nancy book!! :) For grades 1 - 3!!!
My children have been going to the library workshops since we first came to Canada and have always loved them. Chris used to volunteer at the library to help with the Summer game and really enjoyed doing that! One lady even wrote to the library to say how helpful and friendly Chris had been to her and her children!
I love our library :) This Summer we hope to also take part in the Summer game on the Bookmobile which visits our community hall each week. That was fun last year! It's a good time each week for the children to meet up with all their friends at the playground afterwards too!
