Fort Washington Library: Fit4Kids Yoga Bootcamp

Join us at Fort Washington Library for YoBOO, short for Yoga Bootcamp, a unique take on fitness for children.  We combine the aerobic fun of bootcamp with the powerful breathing techniques of yoga to take the children on an energy rollercoaster.  We’re up, we’re down, we’re having FUN!

First we calm down, and then we dance and jump, and then we come back to our breath. It’s a wonderful way to teach children that there is time for energetic fun and a time for quiet breathes.

Fort Washington Library: Esther Crow- Pollinator Puppet Making

Esther Crow- Pollinator Puppet Making

In this workshop, Esther and her puppet, Bernie the Bee, will assist kids in creating bee, bat and butterfly puppets and will teach about how these creatures pollinate many of the fruits and vegetables we eat, and how important they are to maintaining healthy ecosystems. Materials will be provided, but kids are encouraged to bring recycled toilet paper and paper towel rolls for the base of the puppets, and any other recycled/upcycled materials such as colored paper, fabric scraps, beads, sequins, pipe cleaners etc. Esther will also encourage kids to name their puppets and give them voices.

Audience: Children, Pre-schoolers (3-5 years), School Age (6-12 years)
