Ligonier Valley Library

Hello everyone! We have the preschool storytime packets ready today...one day early! So feel free to stop on by and pick one up for our bird themed storytime.

We wanted to share this with our patrons. It was sent out in an email but we surely don't want you to miss this opportunity! PBT is excited to partner with the Westmoreland County Library Network to provide this ballet engagement opportunity for children and caregivers! Join us live by Zoom on Saturday, April 17th at 11:45 for Dance the Story: Ballet Fairies, a live, 30-minute up-on-your-feet story time that explores movement and dance. We'll hear about different ballet fairi...es, read the Cinderella ballet story, learn basic ballet steps and movement concepts, and learn a ballet fairy dance! This is an active, dance-centered program that's perfect for storytime! Recommended for Pre - K through 5th grade. You'll receive a link to access the live event prior to the program. https://events.wlnonline.org/eventsignup.asp?ID=21657

Feelings can be hard for children to talk about. Helping children use words to describe what is happening inside them is an important part of Social and Emotional Learning. Ready Set Music is designed to help reinforce those messages with catchy songs and fun activities. #TogetherPennsylvania #LearningAtHome https://pennsylvaniapbs.org/learning-at-ho/ready-set-music/
