Library Youth Programs

The Fairfield Public Library continues its children?s summer programs with the ?One World, Many Stories? summer reading program, story times and a magic show next week.

The regularly scheduled Toddler Time will be 10-11 a.m. Monday in the children?s section. Toddlers, ages 18-36 months, are invited to attend for stories and free-play activities.

Preschool Campfire Story Time, for ages 3-6, will be 7-7:45 p.m. Tuesday.

The summer reading program will be 2-3 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday. The Tuesday session is for kindergartners through third-graders, and the program will be a tour of the Carnegie Historical Museum, 112 S. Court St., led by Mark Shafer. The Wednesday session is for fourth- through eighth-graders and will be a scavenger hunt at the museum.

For the finale of the summer reading program, Mr. Illusion will present a free magic show for children of all ages at 7-8 p.m. Wednesday.

The last day to submit reading logs for the summer reading program is July 26.

All programs except Toddler Time and the museum activities will take place in the library?s meeting room, and registration is not necessary for any of the programs.
