Off to the Library: Registration Now Open for Reading Buddies

A sampling of June and July programs for children at the Madeira Branch of the Cincinnati and Hamilton County Public Library. For a complete list, contact the library at (513) 369-6028 or visit the branch at 7200 Miami Avenue.

Reading Buddies

The Library offers Reading Buddies as part of the Summer Reading Program.

Come read with one of the library’s teen volunteers! These fun sessions are designed for sharing and exploring books and our love of reading, not as tutoring or reading instruction. Depending on attendance, there will be small group or one-on-one sessions with our Little Buddies. Little Buddies can sign up for as many sessions as they want! Designed for children entering Kindergarten, First Grade, or Second Grade. Please register each child who would like to participate in each individual session.

Tuesdays 1-2:00 p.m. June 3, 10, 17, 24. July 1,8, 15, 22, 29

Registration opened May 13 at 12:00 a.m.

LEGO Crew

Accept the challenge! Each week, join your LEGO crewmates for a new STEM challenge. Build something indestructible, build something that can go into outer space – or free build and get creative! Check in each week for new challenges and activities. LEGOs will be provided. Designed for children entering Kindergarten-6th Grade.

Thursdays 3:30-4:30 p.m. June 5, 12, 26, July 3, 10, 17, 24, 31
