Looking for something crafty for the children to do on Tuesday afternoon?  Join us as we celebrate Spring Break with some fun crafts.  We'll be making a cute inchworm and a colorful butterfly from clothespins at 2:30 pm.  The butterfly will be doubly fun because it will have snack items inside (cereal and dried fruit) that can be eaten later!  Tickets are required.  They are free and available in the Children's Department starting 30 minutes before the program.

    The signs of spring are popping up everywhere: flowers are blooming, humidity is rising, and children are eagerly anticipating CCISD's Spring Break!   If you're looking for some fun for the family, join us for Books Alive! Week.  Sponsored by the Friends of Freeman Library, this annual event features special programs each day of the week.   The programs will run March 12-16 this year.  

Monday, March 12 - 2:30 pm - Wiggly, Wonderful WORMS! - educator Ellen Hutto of Saltgrass Science talks about why worms are important for the garden.

We're calling all young cowgirls and cowboys to a craft roundup on Wednesday, February 29 at 4:30 pm.  We'll be making a scratch-off sheriff's badge and a fun cactus kitchen magnet.  To join this wagon train, tickets are required.  They are free and available at the Kids Information Desk starting thirty minutes before the program.
