Friends of RPL Community Room

Create something artsy and crafty on a day off from school. Register via our events page using each child's name. Limit 10. All supplies provided. 2/6 Stacked Hearts, 2/20 President Characters.

Please register using each child's name. Must register for each date separately. Kindly cancel your registration or call us if you cannot make it so others have an opportunity to sign up.

Monday, 2/6 Stacked Hearts made using different sized hearts. Color each one with a different design/pattern/color then stack and glue in size order (great for showing it off on the refrigerator or giving away as a valentine).

Monday, 2/20 President Characters made by choosing a president, then coloring, cutting and gluing it to a cardboard tube (great as a stand alone or finger puppet).
