A new Tiny Art Show has been curated by renowned art-lover Mr. Patrick. On the 12th of January, the distinguished Miss Jen set forth a challenge to a group of local young artists. She asked that each artist create a Winter Wonderland painting to be put on display for all to enjoy. The company of artists fulfilled Miss Jen's request magnificently! Come see all of the mini masterpieces in the Children's Area and be transported to an imaginative Winter Wonderland from the comfort of the warm library.
Such a cute idea! 🎨
Those are so good!
So fun!!!
"LET'S GET READY TO WIGGLE!" Mr. Patrick shouted as he and over thirty participants walked downstairs to the Basehor Community Library's very first Wiggle Workshop. Grandparents, parents, and their little ones then got to dance, stretch, and, of course, wiggle to their hearts content during this new and exciting program.
Our next Wiggle Workshop will be Friday, January 27th @ 10:00am. Please join us for a half-hour of twirling, jumping, shaking, wiggling fun!

Teens, can you make the best dish out of ramen noodles and random ingredients? You’ll be provided with one pack of noodles to make your dish. There will be some toppings and “extras” to choose from, but if you want to use something specific, feel free to bring it! And the best part? Ms. Amy has to eat what you make!
Prizes will be given away for the tastiest dishes.
Amy is truly the bravest Teen Librarian ever 🤣
