Story Seekers will be offered every Monday starting on July 16^th at 11:00 am. Story Seekers program is for families with children ages birth to five. We offer a variety of literacy activities that include reading, writing, talking, singing, and playing! A new story is offered each week with play experiences that encourage active learning and inspire the imagination. Children have opportunities to create their own stories using art materials, building blocks, dramatic play, and music and movement.

We will restart the Story Seekers Program by sharing My Cousin Momo by Zachariah O’Hora, My Cousin Momo was selected as the Pennsylvania One Book Bradford: Every Young Child book for 2018.

Momo is coming to visit, and his cousins are SO excited! But even though Momo is a flying squirrel, he won't fly for his cousin’s friends. Plus, his games are weird. He can't even play hide and seek right! But when Momo's cousins give his strange ways a chance, they realize that doing things differently can be fun...almost as much fun as making a new friend.

After Miss Judy shares this book, the Story Seekers will work on a craft related to learning about different cultures.
