November in the Children's Room


November is Election Month in the Children’s Room, too!   

We will have a voting booth set up downstairs from November 3 through 7 so that kids can
participate in the voting process, too.  But what will they vote on?  The name of our most lovable gorilla, of course!  Stop by and cast your vote! 

Once voting is done, we’ll begin our next six week session of story times and holiday events.  Space is limited so don’t forget to sign up!

See you soon!

Ms. Nicole
