We ordered a travel version of the game tiddlywinks for The Ickabog book club because it mentions in the book this is one of the games they play. The kids and I have been finding out that in spite of tiddlywinks silly name this is a really tough game! Come join the fun on Wednesday, September 9th at 3 p.m. outside the Dundee Library.

FINS

I love how our kids who have been joining us for our reading of Fins beg to read 2 if not 3 chapters when we meet even though I have only planned to read one! Usually the activities take on a theme from the chapter we are reading so it is easy to give you a sneak preview of the activity I will be offering the following week, but these kids are making it tough. Gee, this is a terrible problem to have! See you outside the Dundee Library on Tuesday, September 8th at 4:00 p.m.

Aspiring Chefs
2020-09-03 16:00 - 17:00
Aspiring Chefs is going to tackle bento boxes this week at 4 p.m. on Facebook Live Thursday, September 3rd. For those of you unfamiliar with bento boxes they are the Japanese version of a boxed lunch from home or a single portion of take-out from a restaurant. Some parents have really taken this concept to a whole other level creating themed lunches for their kids to take to school, but these could also be fun for homeschooling families during their lunch break to create together. I have used this style of lunch to freshen up the bagged lunch offerings from home and to hopefully try something new because it looks cool. We are going to try a few of the ideas that can be found on pinterest and share them with you. It is also a fun way to lure your children into helping with meal prep.

Storytime
2020-09-03 10:30 - 11:30

Whether you are going back to school this next week or preparing for the start of homeschooling these reads should help your kids get excited about learning again and laugh at all the silliness in these books. See you on Facebook Live at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday September 3rd.

How did Rapuzel end up in a mess of long golden hair atop a very tall tower? The classic tale says that her mother craved
only the leaves from the Rapunzel plant in a sorceress’s garden. One day her father is caught stealing these precious leaves
and in exchange for his freedom and more rapunzel leaves he promises to deliver the newborn child to the sorceress who names
her after the plant her mother so enjoyed. We’ll harvest some of these leaves from our fairytale garden to see if it was really
worth all the fuss
