Martensville Library Offers Wide Variety of Activities

by Shanine Sealey

There is always an assortment of activities taking place at the Martensville Library, and this December is no different. Regular programming will be taking place until mid-December.


Books ‘n’ Babies takes place Tuesday and Wednesday mornings until December 20th. This is a registered program for babies up to one year and their caregivers. New sessions for January are currently available for registration.


Story Time is scheduled for Thursdays at 10:30am and is a drop-in program that is best-suited for ages 3-5; however, all are welcome. Story Time includes stories, songs and a craft, and the last program of the year will take place December 14th, resuming mid-January.


Wiggles & Giggles Toddler Storytime is at 10:30am on Friday mornings and is for ages 1-3 and their caregivers. There is a short story, and a focus on songs and movement. The last program of the year will be on December 15th, resuming mid-January.


The local library also offers Crafternoon, which takes place on Wednesday, December 6th at 1:30pm. This is a crafting session for adults where you can bring your projects to work on and socialize with others that enjoy crafting. The session usually begins with a quick craft demonstration by library staff.


For those that enjoy crafting, the library also has Take & Make Crafts that are available weekly for pickup while supplies last.
There will be a variety of Christmas programming taking place at the Martensville Library as well, with the ever-popular Christmas Family Storytime on Saturday, December 16th from 9:30am-10:30am and 11:00am-12:00pm. This program requires registration to attend.


“This program is a special Christmas themed Storytime with stories, songs and a craft. The program is for kids in Grade 2 and under and their caregivers,” Librarian Marla Skomar explained.


There will also be a Celebrate the Season program taking place from December 11-23 where area residents are invited to stop by the library to play holiday themed games, I-Spy and make a craft during regular library hours.


If you are looking for something to do during Christmas holidays, the Martensville Library will be offering a Winter Break Boredom Buster from December 27-January 6 where kids can come by to play Lego, Magformers, board games, Mouse Maze & Ozmo during library hours.


The Martensville Library is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 9:30am-6:00pm, Tuesday & Thursday from 9:30am-8:00pm, Saturday from 9:30am-2:00pm and closed on Sundays.
