🌬️✨ We debuted our NEW WIND TUNNEL at Storytime tonight!!! ✨🌬️

And, of course, it takes a little village to make the magic happen at our library! 🩷

A BIG thank you to a few wonderful people who helped bring this project to life:

🎀 Thank you, Gwen K., for donating the hoop!
🔨 Thank you, Chris B., for building the base of the tunnel!
🧵 Thank you, Julie M., for sewing the netting so those little fingers stay safe!

The kids had so much fun trying it out, and we love adding new ways for families to learn, play, explore, and just have fun together at the library. 🥰

It really does take a village to make our library fabulous! 💕📚🌬️

*The Wind Tunnel will be up all week!

We have a bushel of books ready to go!!😎
