Program Spotlight: Artastic

the "itsy bitsy spider" theme

This Winter the Recreation Department started a new program called Artastic.  Artastic is a program that is focused on making fun themed arts and crafts for children ages 4-5.  Each week included a theme, a story, sometimes a song, and a craft.  Themes included "Itsy Bitsy Spider", "If you give a mouse a cookie", and the classic "One fish two fish red fish blue fish" by Dr. Seuss and many others.

 Hope Taylor-Scott Recreation Supervisor at the Recreation Department came up with the idea for the program.  "We wanted to offer a program that allowed kids to experiment and create crafts based on popular childrens stories.  We were pleased with how excited both the kids and parents were about having a chance to bring home their creations."



 This summer the Recreation Department is offering Artastic.  Click the link below for specific registration information.
