PROGRAMS provide young children and their care-givers
with the opportunity for artistic expression and are often related to the
holidays or seasons. SCHOOL-AGE
CRAFT PROGRAMS for children in
kindergarten through grade seven, provide children with the opportunity
for more advanced artistic expression. Programs are often based on seasonal holidays or activities. SPECIAL EVENTS, which can include author visits, puppet shows, musicians, storytellers, magicians, creative
dramatics, clowns and guest speakers, are offered periodically and
are often funded by the Friends of the Libraries of
Woodbridge Township. This club is our annual
extravaganza for preschoolers and school-age children. The Club consists of activities done at
home and at the library. Children join reading teams and
fill out reading logs at the library, recording the amount of time they
spend reading or listening at home. Weekly programs are also
offered.
