Nine children who ranged from two to six-years-old attended the Book Club Critters Program at the Vegreville Centennial Library (VCL) on Nov. 10. Hub Coordinator for Kalyna Family Resource Network (KFRN), Tasha Homeniuk, said KFRN-V partnered with VCL programming staff to host this program. “We have been trying to find a way to have families engaged during Fall Break from the schools. With this program, we focused on one specific author, Karma Wilson. All our programming with KFRN focuses on the five areas of child development. In this program, children went around from centre to centre where each centre focused on a different area of development and had a different book and a different activity at it. In my centre, we focused on emotional maturity. We talked about identify emotions. We had some big fuzzy dice which are going to stop on a spot that had questions on each one. We had some mirrors, stuffed bears, and doctor’s kits. At the end, each child who participated received a free book.
