Butterflies and Earthworms at Library Storytime!

Wednesday morning at the library, preschool storytime got hands-on with butterflies and earthworms. Ms. Karen read butterfly and earthworm stories, then the children went outside and released the butterflies who have called the library home for the past few months. The children returned inside to investigate earthworms and then released them as well. Finally, they sang their goodbye song, holding hands in a circle, and broke for a caterpillar themed craft.
