Well, "Wiki" may mean quick, but learning about them could take hours, days, years! But I think I got the hang of it after a while. I explored several branches of various wikis, but my favorite discovery was that I can get great craft ideas from several other library wikis for my kids' programs! Yay for craft sharing!
So far this 23 things isn't too bad. I have to admit, it's a nice way to escape a daily routine and get some other "work" done.
Until later...

Pjs and Bunny Slippers
Greetings, fair readers!
Let me preface by saying...Branch Children's Specialist is THE best job at PPLD!! It's too bad not everyone can be a CBS. That's sad for you.
Today I got to go to an elementary school and have fun at a Pajama Party for kindergartners! Yay! I wore my brightest, most obnoxious pajamas (actually...they're my mom's), and I read three very fun books. And, as Cornelia Funke says, children are the very best listeners of all! They were so cute and fun... We sang a song; I had them participate in one story with "ooohhh's" and "ahhhh's" and the occasional "NOO!!"; and by story #3, they were barking just like George. Such glorious fun!
Tomorrow night is an African-American History Month Celebration at OL! You should come...and bring a kid! We'll be making bookmarks and necklaces, and there will be several wonderful stories. Special Guest: Ms. Connie Black. Please, come and give her a hard time! ;)
6:30 pm - Old Colorado City Branch ........ See you there!
Books highlighted in this blog:
"The Great Fuzz Frenzy" by Stevens and Crummel
"The Kiss That Missed" by Melling
"Bark, George!" by Feiffer
"Inkspell" by Funke

Blogs, Bugs and Books...Starting 23 New Things!
Well...Here I am! Hopefully this is what I was supposed to do to get started. My views so far...
Choosing a blog title was hard. I am allergic to committment, and quite frankly, titles make me feel a itchy. I settled on the title I did as a shameless promotion for SRP. It's coming, people! Let's party!
I did, however, enjoy picking the template! I like colors.
That is all. My expereinces are much too limited to encourage verbosity at the moment. That will come later, I imagine... (it usually does).
Ciao!
