Child's Play: Tales and Crafts

 

Summer 2010

Child's Play: Tales and Crafts at the Anderson Barn History Center is a great summer activity for children.  Organized by teacher and long-time Ephraim Historical Foundation member Barbara Fox, this fun reading activity is designed for children, grandchildren, and visiting friends ages 4-8.

Four sessions take place over the summer from the beginning of July through the beginning of August, on a new day, Thursdays at 10:30 am at the Anderson Barn History Center.  Children read a book and then participate in a fun craft based on the book. 

Topics for the season:

Thursday, July 1 -- "Cook-A-Doodle-Doo! -- Help us decorate and eat strawberry shortcakes! 

Thursday, July 15 -- "Cloudy, With a Chance of Meatballs"--Create a large cloud with crepe paper streamers to hang on your door.

Thursday, July 29 -- "Sylvester and the Magic Pebble" -- Paint Magic Pebbles gathered on a nearby shore.

Thursday, August 12--"Rainbow Fish"-- Make a colorful rainbow fish to hang somewhere special!

Advance registration for Child's Play is encouraged, as many sessions fill up quickly.  The cost to attend is $5 per child, and can be paid either in advance or when the child arrives at the session that morning.  The sessions last approximately one hour.
