We had a fun Teen Summer Reading Program this year! Participants build spaghetti and marshmallow towers, and played Under the Earth Trivia They learned about the Caddo Indians and archaeology, and made their own clay pottery. They made hedgehogs out of old books and wrote background stories for classified ads. Those stories were crazy fun! On the final day of the program, participants had the chance to win several prizes, such as hobbit socks, t-shirts, a jellyfish mood lamp, and gift certificates to local businesses. The grand prize for reading was a Kindle Fire.
For the first year, two of our other branches participated in the Teen Summer Reading program by having some passive programs available for teens to complete. Hopefully in the future, other branches will join in and perhaps the full program will make it's way to all the branches!
It was another successful year with lots of reading! Now we're looking forward to next year's program!
Keep up with all things Teen @ Bossier Parish Libraries! Have any question, give us a call, 318-746-1693.
