School-Age Programs

At my smaller library we've had two school-age events which were fun.  In November we had an early-release Thanksgiving STEM activity.  We made Mayflower boats to float and we added pennies to see how much each boat could hold.








On December 1st we celebrated International Ninja Day!  We were disappointed that our communications department did not make us flyers for the event, so we had small turn out (about 1/2 school-age the other 1/2 preschoolers).  It was a ton of fun though and we'd like to do it again--maybe at multiple libraries (so we can get some publicity!)
