Frugal Family Fun-Storytime at the library

I've mentioned how much my kids love going to the library these days.  On Tuesday, we decided to try out the story time session.  It was a big success!  Let me start by saying, I took the twins about a year ago to story time and it was not good.  They were 2 1/2 and basically I spent the time trying to contain them.  We did not go back.  Since they recently started loving the library, I decided to give it another try.  It was great!  They enjoyed the two books that were read, and made 2 crafts.  It was all free and they had a great time.  We also picked out a few books to bring home.  I think we will make it a weekly event for sure!  It's 5 minutes from the house and free-my favorite kind of activities! :-)  The lady tried to send home a craft for Henry to glue later.  I was like- No, he'll be fine.  A mom with a 14 month old (her first child of course) took stuff home to glue.  I chuckled to myself.  Taking something home to glue voluntarily with a less than 2 year old?  No thanks!!!!!  It's funny how things are so different with a 3rd child versus a 1st or 2nd even.  Henry is none the wiser and he did do one craft.  I am so glad our library offers this special time for kids!  :-)
