Our Summer Tales Storytime kiddos had a great time yesterday with Miss Tammy from Dawson County Georgia Farm Bureau. We sang songs and Miss Tammy read a book about how ice cream is made. Then we had fun decorating a big ice cream cone for our craft. The best part was eating ice cream with sprinkles on top!

We can't wait till Miss Tammy comes back. She will be here Thurs. June, 25th for Pickles storytime, Thurs. July 9th for Chocolate storytime, and Thurs. July 23 for a surprise storytime!
