📚 Help us build our Book Buddies library during Amazon Prime Days!

Think of Book Buddies as Lunch Buddies for our younger kids! 💛 We use children’s books, activities, and play to help little ones practice friendship, kindness, confidence, communication, and handling big feelings.

We’ve created an Amazon Wishlist with the books we’ll use in the program, and Prime Days are a great time to help us stock our shelves! 📖 Pick a book from our wishlist and have it shipped directly to FGO. We’ll use these books again and again with kids in our community!

🎃 We had some spooky fun at First Friday Storytime at the City of Wolfforth Library 👻

We read The Little Old Lady Who Wasn’t Afraid of Anything, and Room on the Broom! Then we kept the Halloween fun going by coloring pumpkins and witch hats, creating silly-scary faces with stickers, going on a Monster Hunt, and getting all our wiggles out with Halloween Freeze Dance! 🧙‍♀️🕸️🐰

There were lots of stories, laughs, movement, and creativity… exactly how we like it! We can’t wait to see our storytime buddies again in November! 🍁

Recess is supposed to be fun… but friendships can get a little tricky sometimes. 🦈💛

TOMORROW, for September’s First Friday Storytime, we’re reading Hammerhead’s Recess Challenge, a fun story about friendship, problem-solving, and what to do when things don’t go quite the way we hoped.
