What We're Reading

 


Me

I've been fascinated to learn how the brain's executive function challenges many kids in school and at home.


The Big Kid

My daughter loved this so much, we read it aloud to the whole family. Then moved on to the next one.


The LIttle Kid

A wonderful story with great illustrations and an environmental message that's not preachy or scary.

Bring your gently used toys to our Toy Swap.

Find new treasures to take home.

Bring a new, unwrapped toy for out Holiday Toy Drive.

Everything left over at the end of the day will be donated to charity.

Saturday, December 5, 3:00-5pm
Kidville, 808 Union St at 7th Avenue

Sunday, December 6, 10am-12pm
Kidville, 466 Columbus Avenue (between 82nd and 83rd)


Both events are FREE, but we ask that you bring one new, unwrapped gift to donate to our Holiday toy drive.


Kidville will be providing children's activities
and free open gym time.

Enjoy healthy snacks from FreshDirect and Susie's Supper Club
while you browse and chat with friends new and old.

Door Prizes! Space is limited. First to RSVP will win an item from our swag table: video games, dvds, cds, toys, books and more.
