Cincinnati Library Offers Lots To Do in June

June 9, 2010 By Shannanb

By now you know how much we love the library.  It’s a great resource for families, offering tons of FREE activities for parents of children of all ages.  From toddler story times and craft events to teen movie night and magic shows, there is always something fun going on for families to enjoy.

This month there is A LOT GOING ON at the Cincinnati Library:

Summer Reading Program: The basic idea is that you sign up for the program; you read some books; you keep track of how many you read and then you get a prize. Great way to get kids exciting about reading while school’s out, right?   What’s great about this too, is after you complete your sign up sheet, and get your initial prize it’s not over….. there’s a Grand Prize drawing at the end of the Summer. Read more about the Summer Reading program here.

Fun Library Events: In addition to the Summer Reading Program, the Cincinnati LIbrary has tons of cool special events happening throughout the summer.  There’s magic shows, a portable circus, kids can learn about bugs (and eat some!),there’s  juggling, music (by Zak Morgan), and even a pirate show.  In the past, we’ve been to the magic show and the pirate show and both were excellent and tons of fun! ‘You can view a complete list of events & where they’re taking place, here.

Storytimes & Special Programs: Throughout the month the Cincinnati Library hosts a ton of great storytimes & special programs for children of all ages.
