Dinosaurs zapping out
June at the library
by Barbara Ahring
June dinosaur activities will be
zapping out June at the library
' program this week.
, .... Other Dinosaurs Zap From the
Past" will be our theme. We
i will have fun doing dinosaur
collages, CD dinosaurs, dino-
; saur track painting, all kinds
of paper dinosaur activities.
Another play will be presented,
along with some fun dinosaur
songs.
Last week our focus was on
Oklahoma dinosaurs Some of
our activities were as follow:
Craft Day: Tuesday, 10:a.m.-2
" p.m. (School Age Children)
Children talked about Dazzle
the Dinosaur and then painted
Dazzle.s beautiful scales. It
was really fun to create our
own special dinosaur egg.
The children used recyclables
to make an apatosaurus and a
stegosaurs. The painting activity
was sponge painting dinosaurs.
Making mb-ons was one of the
interesting extra time activi-
ties.
Daycare Day: Wednesday, 9:
30 a.m.-11:30 a.m.--Preschool:
12:30-2:30 p.m.-School Age:
The reading of Dazzle the
Dinosaur was presented fol-
lowed by a puppet play, Three
Dinosaurs Rough. Charlotte
helped us have fun with a
number of dinosaur songs.
Following storytime the chil-
dren had the opportunity of
doing the crafts named above
according to their age level.
The preschool dino-storytime
has increased in attendance each
time to our delight. We wel-
comed twelve new storytime
friends this last Thursday.
This week some of the activi-
ties we will be doing are doing
songs on other dinosaurs.
Children have started to
spend their treasure dollars at
the Dinosaur Treasure Store.
Each child has a catalog listing
most of the items that the store
has to sell. Children have until
July 25 to complete their read-
ing, so there,s a lot of time to
earn dollars to spend.
