🎃👻 Halloween Fun Has Officially Arrived at Storytime! 👻🎃

The Raymond Public Library is now in full fall and Halloween festive mode, and what a spook-tacular time we had at Storytime today! Our little goblins and ghouls kicked off the morning with the delightful story, Corduroy's Halloween, by Don Freeman. Then it was time to get crafty! Using styrofoam balls, pipe cleaners, and lots of imagination, our young goblins and ghouls created their own creepy-crawly spider crafts. There was laughter, creativity, and just the right amount of Halloween magic in the air this morning for our frightfully fun season together.

Make learning fun, join us every Friday at 10:00 a.m. for Storytime at the Raymond Public Library.

🕷️🎃 Spooky Stories & Creepy Crawly Crafts! 🎃🕷️

The Raymond Public Library had a spook-tacular time visiting Learning Tree Development Center for Outreach!

Mrs. Nancy delighted our young readers with a fun reading of Corduroy’s Halloween by B.G. Hennessy. After story time, the little crafters got creative and made their very own spiders with Kristy and Mrs. Nancy!

There were smiles, creativity, and lots of Halloween fun! We love bringing stories to life and sharing the magic of reading with our community.

A big thank-you to Learning Tree Development Center for welcoming us. We can’t wait for our next adventure!
