Fall Bingo!
Whether you participated in the Summer or are new to the concept, we decided to extend the fun this year. Isn’t Fall the best time for reading, really? Stop in to the Library and pick up a game sheet. There are nine squares. Kids need to do nine activities, but adults can double up. So you can read a book with trees on the cover, while sitting in front of the fire. And if you don’t have a fire, the videos on YouTube totally count. Complete the board and you win a Lake Champlain chocolate bar. (Or a treat of equal value if chocolate doesn’t work for you.) You have until Wednesday, November 27th to turn in your completed board. Hope to see you soon. Happy Fall! 
This Month's Take-and-Make: "Beige Doesn't Mean Boring!"
We have three choices this month. You can have one, two, or all three. The first is a set of peg dolls with cute acorn caps. Adorable. The second is a set of materials to make a cork pumpkin, perfect for your Fall table. And the third is a set of materials to make a large cardboard star. It can be left plain or painted a festive color. All you need is some scissors and access to hot glue. If you need to borrow a glue gun we have one of those too. Much like the bag craft we did in the past, this one is a stunner when you open it up. One set of bags per family, but these crafts are open to all ages. Please stop on by if you're feeling crafty. |
Time for Fun and Games!
Are you having a gathering at your house in the next few weeks? Or maybe school vacations are giving you a little extra time together. Did you know the Library has an assortment of puzzles and games that we lend out? We have offerings for all ages, though most puzzles are 500 or 1000 pieces. Come browse our shelves and see if there's anything that strikes your fancy. 
Vermont Granite Museum Pass
With a generous donation from The Friends of The Fairlee Public Library we have purchased a pass to the Vermont Granite Museum. The Friends have also renewed our passes to VINS and The Fairbanks Museum. The Rondo gave us the funds for a pass to The Billings farm and ECHO in Burlington gives a pass to all of the Vermont libraries. We have a pass for Vermont parks and historic sites as well. The passes can be checked out for three days at a time and are the perfect way to see some cool things before school starts at the end of the month. Passes can be checked out to Fairlee residents and families can have only one pass at a time. A library of books is the fairest garden in the world, and to walk there is an ecstasy." E. Powys Mathers, The Arabian Nights |
