Well everyone, I haven't written in a while! I have so much to tell you but that is not the reason that I am here!
I am here to tell you about a reptiles on the move workshop. I know, you might remember: reptiles on the move, but I am not talking about that, we know that you have already heard about that! Ok, so sit back and relax, this might take a while to explain...
PS: You might have seen that this is a two part, I am going to try to blend these together as clearly as I can....

All of the kids in Boscawen look forward to the Boscawen Public Library's Reading Program. It is full of fun, reading, and it really helps kids to not just sit in front of the computer or television on rainy days. It helps me with that too! We went to a Reptiles on the Move workshop recently! That is the theme for this year! As you might remember, last year was an Australian animal theme. You might remember that we went to a show before as I wrote about it but that was a little while ago....
Anyway, this is different. In this workshop our library got together 10 kids, (it was supposed to be 12 but Taurus (Baby Boy) and Tert (Pappoose) filled the spots easily!! ;)
We went there with our cousins, Aunt Krista's girls. When we got there the woman who was demonstrating there gave a description of some of the reptiles. She told what you would do if you took care of them and she gave all sorts of info. about important subjects. Then we did questions. Finally, we got to the point where she finally said, "Now, I will take out some of these animals!" All of the kids held their breath as she handed them reptiles of all kinds. We petted them and we were all excited. It was soo cool! Then she put them back. She gave some more information and then she showed us how to feed them! She let us feed them with worms and all sorts of stuff. She let us feed all of the animals to our delight. None of the kids wanted to stop. We held baby tortises, big ones, all sorts of them! We were so excited! We fed them lettuce! We had so much fun and were very disapointed when it reached four thirty and it was clean up time. We all helped pick up worms, lettuce scraps and all sorts of things.
Much thanks to the Reptiles on the Move Program! Thank you also Boscawen Public Library for this delightful program!
Part 2:
Now we get on to part two: The reading program!
We got a huge sheet with all sorts of things we have to do. We have to read thirty minutes in each square this year instead of fifteen! It is going to be fun! And yes,
we will get ice cream coupons! It is going to be so much fun! We love the summer reading program! It is very, very fun! We love to get involved in more reading! I will write future posts about this program but for now I should end!
Much thanks again to the Boscawen Public Library for setting this stuff up!
Much thanks again to the Reptiles on the Move for your educational program!
