Crafts


Curious George Mask: Use the template in the Event Kit, above. Color and attach strings.  

 

'Just Hangin' Around' Doorhanger/'Get Curious About Books' Bookmark: Use the doorhanger and monkey accucuts from NCLS to cut out the pieces, or cut large rectangles for the bookmark. Make small labels that say "Just Hangin' Around!" or "Get Curious About Books". Let kids glue the label and lots of monkeys all over the doorhanger/bookmark - the more the better!

 

Banana Necklaces: Lace drinking straw pieces and clipart pictures of bananas onto yellow yarn. Wrap a piece of tape around the end of the yarn to make threading the pieces easier.
