The Calhoun County Library has a designated room for children’s programs now and we’d like you to come by and see our changes.
The Merle Govan Program Room is now only for children’s programs. To make it more child-friendly, we have a new dedicated children's storytime space with vibrant colors and a reading tree. We made it a bit more colorful and fun. A little paint and a little muscle have transformed the Program Room; each wall is a different color to inspire children’s imaginations. One blue, one green, one yellow, and one orange wall are better and brighter to enhance our young community’s bright future.
Speaking of decorations, that moves us on to the second big change in the now colorful room: a big ‘ole tree! We have added a permanent reading tree! This large tree has cubbies all over that give plenty of space for the best books and toys of the week. These easily accessible shelves and bottom cubbies make it easy to grab the free book from the program and they are perfect for Mother Goose to store Buddy, Mrs. Perky Bird, and Puff the Magic Dragon. Vinyl seats encircle the base of the tree to allow for a relaxing reading area underneath the canopy of foam leaves on the top to mimic a real tree. Aside from it being big, inviting, and useful, this brand new reading tree is simply just awesome!
Come visit the library and join us for a children’s program to take a look at these new and improved changes. Together let’s make this place as fun as possible because reading is FUN-damental and the earlier we can get children to agree, the better!
