Children's Programs:

The Children's craft bags for the month of December have been distributed to all those families who registered. However, you can also watch story time and create your own craft by following the instructional videos posted on Fridays @ 10am.

LEGO Club:  We are posting new build challenges every Wednesday. Did you get time to build something really awesome? Share a picture with us by tagging us on social media, or email it to children@shelburnelibrary.ca.

Sleepy Story Time: Thursday evenings just got a whole lot cozier! Jump into your PJs and join us for a fun addition to your bedtime routine - Streaming Live on the Shelburne Public Library Facebook and Instagram pages, every Thursday at 7:00 pm.

Story Time: Our Story Time craft bags have become a huge hit! Each Friday at 10:30am a brand new Story Time video is released. These videos are great to watch on their own, but are even more fun when you've picked up your bag full of take-home Story Time crafts! We sing songs together, listen to a story, and then follow the instructions for the crafts in our craft bags. 

Need more information about any of our programs? Call us at 519-925-2168, or email children@shelburnelibrary.ca.
