<\/em>As mentioned back in September<\/a>, the idea of starting something for the teens came from a luncheon when the children’s director, Iris Garcia, noticed all of their teen volunteers and said she really \u201csaw the need for a program that targeted that age group and their interests.\u201d So from there, Garcia got with the kids and brainstormed different activity ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, TEEN-SCAPE has been an absolute blast. From tie-dye to game night where they enjoyed games like Pictionary, charades, and UNO. For Hispanic heritage month, they had a mini cooking class where teens learned how to make homemade tortillas. Then they also had a macram\u00e9 class where they made macram\u00e9 keychains. Two weeks ago they did Pumpkin Carving and now last week was Halloween costume karaoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/losfresnosnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/311187272_154454677272474_2214848373206380913_n-768x1024.jpg\")

<\/em>For the young toddlers, the library has been hosting story times since September and the kids have loved it. Starting with the book \u201cThe Color Monster\u201d by Anna Llenas. The book helps kids unpack their feelings through color. Unpack feelings with color in this international bestseller that helps young readers identify emotions and feel more in control. You can find this book on Amazon or at a local library.
Their latest book reading was \u201cThe Little Ghost who Lost Her Boo!\u201d by Elaine Bickell and afterward, the kids made little ghosts to take home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/losfresnosnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/306845864_382008057464218_5889740362965615758_n-1024x768.jpg\")

You might find someone quilting, crocheting, knitting, or doing cross stitch. This is an opportunity to meet other people that enjoy the craft of needlework here at the Library!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many of the ladies there have a blast working on their different projects in the comfort of friends with similar hobbies.
