Tyler Loves the Library

Tyler being a good helper and putting his part of the story on the board.


Today Tyler went to the library with friends and his cousins. The library on beach st. is really nice because they have this really large room located inside that is filled with tons of toys for all age groups. The kids love it, there is a bunch of pretend play food that they can't get enough of, and musical toys, and a really big fish aquarium. They also do story time, with a puppet show. I just thinks its really neat and very fun for the kids. They also do some dancing and singing which is Tyler's absolute favorite part. I think I am going to have a musician on my hands, he is always so intrigued by people dancing and singing, his face always lights up. Anyways the storytellers do a really good job of keeping the kids interested. It had a been a while since we've gone to the library, Tyler never really had the patience to sit down and listen to stories. He was distracted very easily, so I wasn't sure how he would do this time. To my surprise he sat down the entire time on the mat in the circle and paid attention to the stories and loved the puppet show. He also helped by putting pieces of the story on the board. I am glad they do interesting things like this for the children so they can develop a habit for reading. It doesn't even cost anything, so the fact they plan this is really nice.
