September Holidays
During the spring holidays the Chinchilla Library celebrated all things wee, little, tiny, teeny and tiddley.
Every afternoon after reading a story, the children would make something to take home as well as something to add to the mural created in the kids room.
The first afternoon was spent brainstorming what was needed in a backyard- a tree, pond, house, garden, clothes line, clouds, fish and insects. Numerous other things were also added along the way- a picket fence, a garden path, bird bath and a lost hat. The task was huge, but the kids outdid themselves and the mural was completed in two weeks. The result is fantastic.
Check it out and see if you can find 48 ants, 7 pegs or a pair of lost reading glasses.
