    May is block month around the Children's Department at Freeman Library.  Children are invited to build something with our wooden blocks.  We have a shelf filled with blocks of all shapes and sizes.  They will be out through the month of May.  In June, we will bring back a puppet stage with hand puppets.   Each month we rotate the puppet stage and the blocks.  These two creative outlets have been a great hit at Freeman Library.    They are two of the many fun and educational items made possible through the generous donations of the Friends of Freeman Library.
