Programming at Home
Join us for fun and safe programming for all ages! Look for Take-and-Make activity bags and Baby Time and Family Story Time resources for use at home.
Take-and-Make Activity Kits
With pick up, ask about our activity kits for preschool, school-aged children, teens, and adults. Contents may include a hands-on activity, activity sheets, and suggestions for additional library resources. Availability may be limited. Please speak to staff at your local branch for details.
Virtual Story Time
Join us virtually for live songs, stories, rhymes, and activities aimed at developing your child’s early literacy skills. Pre-registration is required to receive a kit and virtual meeting link. Please register with the host branch by phone or email. If your home branch is not Fergus or Puslinch, please let the hosting branch know upon registration.
Fergus Branch: Every other Wednesday beginning March 24 at 10:30 am
Puslinch Branch: Wednesday, March 10, 24 and April 7, 21, and 28 at 11:00 am
