Introduce your child to the calming and energizing practice of Qigong! 

This free class is suggested for kids 4K - 5th grade.

Qigong is a gentle, mindful exercise that blends breathing, movement, and imagination. It’s like “meditation in motion” and is perfect for children who are curious, energetic, or need a calming break. 

Come and shake your sillies out with Miss Emily at our Outdoor Summer Storytime. Join us from 10:00 - 10:30 am for singing, dancing, stories, and more! After the stories stay and move and groove with some fun outdoor activities. This program is geared toward kids of all ages. Bring a blanket to sit on and join in the fun! Parks and themes may change.

Embark on a wintry adventure with the DAPL's story walk. Jamie A. Swenson's delightful book, We Want Snow: A Wintry Chant, is a wonderful way to start this winter season.

The StoryWalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library. Storywalk® is a registered service mark owned by Ms. Ferguson.

Stop at the library to read to Claire Blu. Clair will be at the library most second Tuesdays from 4 - 5 pm.
