Our summer reading program has just finished its third week, but there is still time for you to join. It’s super easy to track your reading on Beanstack, plus we have a really cool and large collection of books you want to read anyway. (and if there is something you think we should have, let us know!). For kids up to age 12 who read and log two hours each week, they are automatically entered into the weekly raffle for a prize bag full of books. For every two hours that you spend reading and log into Beanstack, you earn a ticket. These tickets can be entered into drawings for the chance to win some awesome prizes. We are also offering tickets to local attractions (see Beanstack for details!)
Every year we offer a couple of book bundles. These bundles are composed of patron’s favorite authors and titles and the bundle covers a large range of ages. These bundles are perfect for families with kids of multiple ages or for kids to grow into. We offer these bundles for kids, teens and adults. (Image is one of the children's bundles you can win this year!)
For kids, we have a slime kit package. Our first kit contains everything you need to make vibrant slime. There is one bottle of pink washable color glue, one bottle of purple washable color glue, and two bottles of Elmer's Magical Liquid.
