Having Fun at the Library

October 20, 2014 By: amyswanderingcomment

Does your family love the library as much as mine does? I have a fun post over on Blessed Beyond a Doubt about all of the cool stuff you can find at a library. Be sure to print out your library scavenger hunt!

This song is always running through my head when we visit the library –> “Having fun isn’t hard, when you’ve got a library card.”

A few of the books we currently have checked out:

a million little ways
A Million Little Ways: Uncover the Art You Were Made to Live

What Einstein Told His Cook: Kitchen Science Explained

what's smaller than a pygmy shrew
What’s Smaller Than a Pygmy Shrew? (Wells of Knowledge Science Series)

Christopher Pop-In-Kins ~ Cuter than Elf on the Shelf

I like the idea of having some silly make-believe elf fun (my kids are old enough to join in on the antics), but I’ve always thought the Elf on the Shelf looked a little creepy. I came across this cute Christopher Pop-In-Kins today and think I’ve finally found our elf! It has actually been around much longer than that other elf. 😉 It is usually $29.99, but is on sale right now for only $13.63. This price could change at any time, so grab it now and tuck it away for Christmas.
