For Children
Pages & Play Club every Wednesday at 10 am.
What is Pages & Play Club?
It's what we call our Storytime. We feature books, songs, and activities aimed at young children, plus at the end there's playtime and socialization for the kids and chatting for the grownups!
We are working on offering a Baby Bounce & Toddler Time in the future. If you have any suggestions about what time works best for you, let Katie know at kschuelke@oelwein.lib.ia.us or call the library. Keep an eye on this space for more details.
Theme Thursdays every Thursday at 4:00 p.m.
This is a weekly after school program that is intended for elementary and secondary students. Meet at the library on Thursdays from 4:00-5:00 pm. This weekly program will cover a different topic each week, from science to technology to art and everything in between. LEGO's will be featured one week each month.
