The Racine Public Library, 75 Seventh St., offers several opportunities for school age children to enjoy after school activities involving reading.
An After-School Storytime with stories and crafts geared to kids ages 3-10 is held once a month. The next event will be held on Tuesday, March 29 from 3:30-4:30 pm. Registration is requested and may be done by calling the library at 262.636.9245 or by visiting the library's website at www.racinelibrary.info.
School age children in grades 1-5 are also invited to spend 15 min. reading to one of the library's specially-trained listening dogs in the Ruff Readers Program. These canine friends visit the library after school several days a week. This is a fun way for kids to practice reading to a non-judgmental and gentle listener. Time slots available on a first-come/first-served basis. This season's Ruff Readers program is underway. Call the library at 262.636.9245 for days and times, or to reserve a reading spot.
