Life Size Candy Land 

Life Size Candy Land was a huge success last week! Participants were able to make their way around the Candy Land board multiple times, getting candy along the way.

A huge thank you to our volunteers for helping out! They were able to take smaller groups around the game board to avoid long waits during game play! 

No worries! If you were stuck on the wait list or didn't get a chance to sign up, we plan on bringing the program back in the future! 

Mad Science Workshop

Last weekend we had a mad scientist come to the library. Students of the workshop learned about electricity, and they were able to have some electrifying experiences for themselves!

Here are some pictures from the event:

Artists Workshop

We've had some great Youth Service programs, lately. The first program we had this past week was an artist's workshop. Students of the workshop were able to work with different mediums of materials to create their own original art piece.

Here's some students hard at work:

And here *drum roll* are the final results!

Special thanks toTerri Murphy for such a great program. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves!

Police Storytime at Oak Brook Public Library

Special thanks to Officer Huff who came in for Police Storytime this past week. Officer Huff was able to read some super fun stories, and also, talk about her job serving the community as a police officer. There were many smiling, and curious young faces in her audience.

And at the library, we would like to thank office Huff not only for stopping by, but also, her service to the Oak Brook community!

Thank you, Officer Huff.
