Lansing Library and one room school house visit a big success!









We had a couple of really nice days at the Lansing Library this week. We enjoyed a story and snack as well as a trip to the one room school house! Mrs. Susie read us a story and talked about the library. We looked around the library and saw the children's room as well as the new space in the downstairs. We enjoyed a nice little snack of goldfish crackers before heading off to the one room school house. When we came out of the library we heard a loud bell clanging...it was Mrs. Bement ringing the bell at the school...calling all the children in! When we entered we came around the corner to find a little classroom with desks, a teachers desk and a chalk board. While we were there she told us about what it was like in the old days in a one room school house. Ask your child about how they kept it warm? What the children used to eat lunch? Where they went to the bathroom? What the desks were like? It was an exciting day. Your child will be bringing home their library card and a brochure listing the library's events and hours. We hope you and your child enjoy the library and develop a love of reading like we have! Special thanks to the Lansing Library staff, Mrs. Susie and Mrs. Bement!
