had a lot going on the first part of december now still you still do though we did jumping right into business or did you have something yes well so we lost episode what i'm still getting into it so i here but there's still lots of time left and many people me wall are probably already doing this because we know they are because our programming this awesome and they're there to they're in we have a good library ok so ways to take advantage of libraries storing the holidays and this is for those that may or may may not know ok number one you can get holiday gift advice who knew finding the perfect gifts for family and friends is hardly ever easy i know not only do you have to consider things like price and personality but you have to stay on top of all the latest trends and coolest gadgets of the season it is i'm already stressed and this can be a daunting task but many libraries have you covered they offer workshops on things like well actually for us we offer resources like consumer reports you know you can get that on line that's part of our magazines that we have on the line we also i think have a hard copy to part of our magazine section so you can get into that and can you know compare potential presents finding out about the hottest technology of the year so of course come to peter's township library and you can houses we've done i'm not sure about even all the things that the adult department does but i'll tell you what we really have them covered in the children's department and they library in here talks about libraries offering holiday themed depend we have to pay your fines but there are some libraries to what they do is during the holiday season they may pick a day as a program to have patrons bring in food like we do for the gift wrapping i did for the thanksgiving program i did you know bring in nonperishable food and this is each nonperishable item will replace what this is not this is core i like how they did this one dollar's worth of fine oh cool yes so it's not like i'm going to bring in a can of corn and have all my finds very very dollars with a library find right exactly you get that so whole yeah i think that's going to be a good new year's topic of like what kind of different things can you do in the new year through our library there's a library allegheny county that you can check out tables and chairs and people like will drive from like really ok so those are the five ways to take advantage of your public library touring the holiday and only five i mean there's a lot more than that but at least get your minds thinking to how  can help you ok real quick i mentioned again that this is still going on are all from the shelters if you come into the library between now and the nineteenth and in fine are on the shelf snowy and right down the book that she sitting with her reading you have a chance to win a really awesome which is a brain you showed p b s kids it's replacing bob the builder and it is about a moon and i don't really know much more about it than the not at this point because i haven't seen it yet because it's hasn't been released and we're going to go to show the christmas episode of before it airs on p b s kids so if you come to the library on the thirteen that six thirty you can come see a brand new show we're going to have some fun holiday treats we'll probably have some nice holiday snacks to go along with that and activities and crafts and watch the brand new holiday episode of let's go live brand new t v series that's about outer space cool we're so fortunate yes i don't know how many times we've said in these programs how blessed we are to have such a start with that big gorging of ourselves over thanksgiving and then we continue that gorging all the way through new year's when we make that new year's resolution just to lose the three hundred thirty three pounds gained gorging from to feel like that that's a lot i know it's a lot of weight but sometimes you just do it and if you feel like you know why did i do that because it's fun and it's there and i'm hungry ok so what the kids that we are going to do i'm doing an edible holiday treats night so the kids come in and it's that one is on the seventeenth so monday night at six thirty and the kids will be making three different holiday treats so the cool thing about it is it's not like it's something that you will necessarily hang on your tree or put out for a decoration but and they may even eat it before they leave the room which is ok but the point of it is to is to have fun as a group and socializing and you know being out with your family doing holiday things but the also things that go learn how to do and they can do at home yeah you know keep it just simple and fun where you go what a cute idea you know people like to you know pinterest is the biggest thing well you know like to do that  or yes in the recent being if logically you think about it if i'm doing holiday treats i want to make sure that we have enough of everything right for the people that come in it is hard we don't want to turn anybody away you know we just don't that's just not our thing we're more of an airy your eyes are all that are going to be there yeah but you know it helps us to at least get you know a little bit of a handle on it right after school so that's my tween group so when you are coming in you're walking from murray is pretty much like that age group come right after school we'll have something festive to eat and we are reading and you know what i'm proud to say i was not able to bring an audio copy or the book copy in to show on the screen because they're all well they're all so how they're all come in your book about reading but book is sammy keys and the runaway elf and it's by wendell and van drawn then and it is adorable sammy keyes is it's a kind of like a mystery and there's a whole series of stanley keys everything that you need to play chess he puts everybody together and he oversees it you know if they need help and they need to learn how to do it are you that's is he it's just a wonderful thing that he g that wrote a book about chess yes that's right and i do them to our library books to our library and we made a decision to pass those out add to christmas the holiday december holiday chests session session and one per family so each family that attends will get this book free book about chess and it's neat it's i read it it's easily written for children to be able to understand it goes through the pieces and exactly what they can do you know and

shredder and you can come into a library and if you look closely at the pieces of the book you can tell by the font or sometimes the images there's definitely character names that are kind of sticking there's there's definitely i had some kids in there that were able to figure out pretty much what this book was but this one's a very specific volume ok so and she's a stickler dollar gift card for our book and d v d still that we have ongoing at the library so you can come and get some free stuff and there's a lot of my stuff right now with our holiday sale going on so ok i can i guess can i
