Friday Craft Kit, All Hallow's Reading, and Cooking Mayhem!

It's the start of Spooky Season (Ms. Sti's absolute favorite time of year!), so a lot of our crafts will be Halloween related!

To celebrate the kick off of our new All Hallows Reading Challenge on friendswoodlibrary.beanstack.org we're making this set of 5 spooky bookmarks!

Here they are keeping my place in the book we'll be reading for the return of the Middle Grade Book Club, Ghost Squad by Claribel Ortega!

Pick up the craft kit at the drive through window or in the Children's Department!

Keep an eye out on our website and in the app store on your phone for the link to Beanstack, our new reading challenge software! This is where we'll be posting reading challenges for the whole family that will be available year round! To start things off we have an All Hallows Reading Challenge starting Saturday Oct. 3! Log your time reading and complete different activities to earn our special Halloween Treat Bag that can be picked up at the library on Halloween!

And finally, here's a hilarious clip from last week's Streaming with Sti Animal Crossing program

Zaki Con 2019: Cosplay Contest!

The final event of Zaki Con is our cosplay contest. I assume you're familiar with cosplay if you're reading, but just in case you aren't: cosplay is " the practice of dressing up as a character from a movie, book, or video game, especially one from the Japanese genres of manga and anime." And anyone can do it! Young and old alike are adorable when dressing as their favorite characters from books, movies, and anime! At Zaki Con, we want to see your interpretation of cosplay! You can enter as one person or as a group (though groups will have to share prizes if they win). All you have to do is come dressed as your favorite character. Since Zaki Con is a family event and it is held in the public library, all costumes must be appropriate for our setting and audience! Entries will be judged by a panel of judges from the library and the community. We look forward to seeing your cosplays during the Con and at the contest which will be held at 5:00pm on Saturda

Duct Tape Pencil Bag

1. Gather supplies. 2. Unwrap one length of duct tape and carefully set plastic bag on top. Go slowly so there are no air bubbles in the duct tape! 3. Unwrap other color of duct tape and tape the opposite side of the bag. 4. Trim extra duct tape off. 5. Continue adding duct tape (You can do all one color on each side or alternate like I did. Trim sides so everything is even. 6. Optional, if you want to store your pencil bag in your binder, mark where the rings are located. 6. Use a hole punch to make holes. 7. Decorate with stickers or permanent markers!
