SPRING STORY TIMES AND SPECIAL CHILDREN’S PROGRAMS
“Nature’s Royal Tea Party” Saturday, June 8th at 1:00pm
Based on the book Nature’s Royal Tea Party , by local author and illustrator Cheryl Kling, mothers and daughters are invited to attend a very special tea party. We’ll be reading the story, doing a craft and sitting down for a traditional tea party complete with tea sandwiches, fresh strawberries, and fine desserts. Then, we’ll enjoy some traditional English countryside music and the children will be able to dance around a festive maypole!
Best suited for ages 5-9 years old and their mothers. There is a fee of $5 per attendee, payable at registration, to cover costs. Space is limited and registration is required. We hope you will join us at “Nature’s Royal Tea Party!”
