Time Out Tuesdays



Kids going into grades 1-3 have been having lots of fun learning about robots, bubbles, flight and more at: Time Out Tuesdays.

TGI Friday Movie - Meet the Robinsons




Join brilliant young inventor Lewis as he sets off on a time-traveling journey to find the family he never knew.

In the world of 2037, hip-hoppin' frogs and dogs that wear glasses are as common as talking dinosaurs. In an amazing twist, Lewis  discovers that the fate of the future rests in his hands, but he can't save it alone. He meets the wacky Robinson family, who help him learn to keep moving forward and never stop believing in himself.

Bring along a snack and a drink and enjoy this fun, futuristic family film. 



It's SYNC Week #10!

And it's "Elementary, my dear Watson!" This week SYNC pairs mysteries from the Sherlock Holmes family–including one solved by Sherlock’s little sister, Enola.

(Just a note, the Enola Holmes series is one of Mrs. Madden's favorites! She encourages you to give it a listen.)
