Foam Picture Frame Take-and-Make Craft Kit

Foam Picture Frame Take-and-Make Craft KitSign up to receive a craft kit to make a foam "Cute as a Bug" foam picture frame. The only material you will need from home is glue. NOTE: This frame was tougher to put together than we thought it would be! Pieces are not “peel and stick” and do require a liquid glue (like Elmer’s). Please allow many hours to dry. Also- some of the foam bug pieces are very small and hard to handle. However, the frame can be decorated with as little or as many foam bug pieces as you would like! Kits will be available to pick up inside the library beginning Tuesday, July 30th. If there is a waitlist, any kits not picked up by Tuesday, August 6th will be offered to families on the waitlist. Registration required.

A handful of books will be available, but feel free to bring one from home. Each child will have one-on-one reading time.
