Bald Eagle

Neighbor Wade came into the library tonight w/ his two kids and walked over to the front desk.  "Bet you're happy Summer Reading Program meets during your volunteer time!"  he said sotto voce and laughed.  Tonight wasn't too bad - kind of a organized chaos.  The children had a couple of books read to them.  Then they could make Lego creations and/or friendship bracelets.  The difference between tonight and when the library used to hold Lego Club is that the parents are here tonight so the children behaved.  I don't think the reason for the good behavior is that the parents are reprimanding their children as much as that the children love having exclusive access to their parents attention so make the most of it.   Snacks were cheese sticks and Oreo cookies which were completely gone by the end of the night.  I left no books unshelved and got home by 7:40.  For me, best night of the program so far.
