Looking for something to do? We’ve got a variety of programs all year long at the Gaylord. Past programs at the library include:

  • Slime lab
  • Live reptiles
  • Mythical creature crafts
  • Jewelry making
  • Sand and water table play
  • Galaxy in a jar
  • Live insects of the night

Every Thursday from 4:00-6:00 p.m. is LEGO Club night at the library! Free build from our collection of Star Wars, Creator, City, Minifigure, Duplo, and more!

Every Friday morning is storytime! We sing, play games, do movement activities, and, of course, read books! Storytime is always followed by an art project. While this program is geared towards preschoolers, we welcome all ages. We love when older kids help us decode wordless picture books, or tell our own stories together using the felt board! Sometimes in the summer we have special storytimes outside.  Join us every Friday morning at 10:30. 

There’s lots to do in the kids room!
