Public Library Princess Party

We are so blessed to have such a wonderful children's library program right here in Clarksville. There have been plenty of events I've missed by not paying attention to their postings and their webpage calendar, but so excited to catch this one because it is just right up Anna Claire's alley.

I invited one of Anna Claire's friends and her mommy, and was so excited that Ava Hawkins could come. It was her first trip to the library, so I was really excited to see how she would react. She loved it and the girls had so much fun. At 39 weeks pregnant, I had less fun, but enjoyed talking to Lisa and watching the girls enjoy themselves.

Anna Claire and Ava both found it important to wear princess dresses for the occasion.

For story time, they read Princess Puppy and The Paper Bag Princess.

After story time the girls were able to choose from several stations for crafts. Anna Claire is stringing beads to make a necklace. I think this was her favorite craft.

. Here's Anna Claire making her princes crown.

And Ava making hers.

The girls could have their picture taken inside this cardboard princess castle. Anna Claire is eating the giant marshmallow she made, dipping it into drippy frosting, then sprinkles. Brave librarians, I tell you.

Here they are enjoying their pink lemonade and cookies. 

 

Checking out the princess books and hugs goodbye.

The girls were also able to make a paper bag princess, which was really cute. They also enjoyed just exploring the children's library and looking for books.

So glad we decided to go!
