Thrive Thursday Placeholder for April 2014

on
Do you all know about Thrive Thursday? It's the genius idea of Lisa Shaia to take the Flannel Friday model (of weekly story time ideas) and expand it into programs for school-age children. So every month we round up submitted ideas from bloggers for crafts and activities for elementary aged kids and this month I'll be your host!

As with Flannel Friday, please leave a link to your blog post, and I'll compile them in a new post. You've got until Thursday, April 3rd so rack your brains, scour your files, and share some awesome programs!

    I don't have a blog but would like to contribute. Is there a way I could write something up and send it to you?

    I had grand success, and a bit of kid-imagined chaos, in my take on a Lost in Space program: http://showmelibrarian.blogspot.com/2014/03/lost-in-space-unprogram-for-school-age.html

    Thanks to the librarians at LaCrosse Public Library for the inspiration!

    And thank YOU for hosting. :)
