And that’s a wrap on Week 2 of the TD Summer Reading Club! We hope you’re starry eyed and ready to learn, because this week’s theme was “Shoot for the Stars!”. Did you know that if you traveled to the nearest star, it would take 70,000 years?  

This week we had a super fun craft planned, where we made stained-glass stars to hang in your windows at home! Together we read the book, Star of the Party by Jan Carr, and played a game with moon rocks – be sure to practice your balancing skills for this one!  

Don’t forget to bring your reading log this week, so you can start collecting beads for read-a-bead!  

For those who cannot join us this week, we have another colouring sheet that you can print off at home or at the library, and a fun reading list all about stars can be found on the Huron County Library’s catalogue.  

Lastly, we have a super fun reading challenge for our friends who are not able to come to the reading club: print off this Rocket Ship Reading Log, and colour in one rocket ship for every book or chapter you read!  When the page is full, show it off to your local librarian and win a small prize! 

Aim for the stars!

This week be prepared to take a look at how crazy and amazing plants actually are! We will learn that they do a lot more for their survival and our environment than we may have thought – they don’t just sit there!  What do plants eat? Bugs? Sunshine? Cheese sandwiches? Join us for week 6 and find out! This week’s theme is “Check this out! Plants Aplenty!”

To have fun exploring this week’s theme from home, download our “plant-iful” colouring sheet and check out this week’s online reading list – we have “plant-y” of themed books there! (sorry for the puns, we couldn’t help it 🌱) And as always, we encourage you to head to your local library branch to find even more amazing books! We hope to see you there!

Enjoy the sunshine this week!
