Story Book Fun Day

Story Book Fun Day was a hit again this year! We had many great costumes with a lot of creativty in making your child part of their favorite story. The book exchange went well. Most children got to pick out 4 or 5 (new to them), gently used books to take home to read.  Thanks to all that helped organize and make the day run smoothly. We couldn't have done it withouth the help of the parents.
