Story Hour
Story Hour is held at the library meeting room September through May. Children and their parents meet each Friday from 10:00 am thru 11:00 am. Exceptions to this is when school is out. Story hour is open to children up through kindergarten.
The Gillett Library has a unique program usually starting with “Stand up, Sit down.” Each week has its own theme. The story for the week reflects that theme. Many times Cindy Tusch engages the children in a sing-a-long on her guitar. After the story and song the children complete a craft project that pertains to the theme.
The children have been visited by McGruff the Crime Dog, Pawsitive Families of Oconto County, Gillett Police Department, Santa Claus, and The Easter Bunny.
Make it and Take it Craft Day
