Preschool Trick-Or-Treat!

Good Tuesday, young Pomonans! I don't think there is anything cuter than a preschooler in a Halloween costume!! We had a great time! We started with stories and songs in the story hour room and then we went trick-or-treating around the library.

Joke of the day: How do witches keep their hair in place while flying?
Answer: Scare Spray! ;)

Infant Story Time Trick or Treat

Like I've said before, we make 'em cute in Pomona! Grandma Sue had a great turnout with the 0-2 year old group this morning. After a short story time they paraded around the library to get treats. They don't go to as many stops as the Tuesday toddler group but this is just right for the infants.

Joke of the day: What room should you take babies to when they cry?
Answer: To the bawl room. :)

Halloween Trick or Treat - We Make 'em Cute in Pomona!

Did we ever have fun today? You betcha! Every year the Tuesday before Halloween we dress up and go trick or treating around the library. It's one of my all time favorite things to do! Take a group of toddlers, dress them up and it just doesn't get any cuter than that!

The stories today were: Big Pumpkin, There Once Was A Witch, Take a Ride on the Ghost Train, and The Chocolate Chip Ghost. We trick or treated in these departments:
Technical Services, Administration, the sorting room, adult reference, and the circulation desk. I always like going downstairs into technical services because it is the one time a year that the public can see that space.

Thanks for participating and I'll see you next week. Stay cute!

Good Halloween Fun at Story time

We had a great time today at story time. We had very enthusiastic children having good spooky stories and finger plays. Don't forget that next week, October 28th at 12:15pm, we will have Halloween stories and then we will trick or treat around the whole library! What fun. Be sure to wear your Halloween costume, we will provide a bag. We start out in the children's room and then go downstairs to Technical Services. The public is never allowed down there except for once a year when we get to go through there! From there we will go to Administration, to the pages sorting room, upstairs to the Adult reference desk, and then end at the circulation desk.

Be sure to wear your costumes and frighten the wits out of all of us!

Joke of the day: Why do witches carry cats on their broomsticks?
Answer: Because elephants get airsick! :)
