From our local ShopRite dietitian, Corina: Who’s hungry after a long day of school? If your kid loves their after school snack, then sign them up for the ShopR...ite Virtual After School Snack Class. Students will make their snack, along with Corina Palagruto, the dietitian at ShopRite of Aramingo and Bridge/Harbison, on a group video call. Corina will send out a snack recipe a few days before the events to ensure you have everything you need for the class. After School Snack Classes will be held every Tuesday at 3:30 PM.

Miss G's book review: We read "A is for Activist." This book has the ABCs with all sorts of good things, like helping the Earth stay healthy, making sure all people are treated fairly, and being an ally. My mommy says being an ally is like being a good friend and we need to help our friends. I don't know all the big words in this book yet, but my mommy says they are important words, so I'll learn them!
At hoopla digital, we love Halloween and we’ve worked to collect the best titles for the holiday. This year, Halloween will look different and we are here to help with an exciting content for your at-home celebration, said hoopla digital co-founder Jeff Jankowski. With a growing number of Halloween parties canceled during the COVID-19 pandemic and the CDC declaring trick-or-treating a high-risk activity, many people are planning to adapt their usual Halloween celebrations to follow social distancing guidelines. According to a HalloweenCostumes.com survey, 42.32% of people said they are celebrating Halloween at home this year. hoopla’s Halloween curated collections feature hundreds of titles for a range of ages including kids and young adults.
UPDATE: the next one is this Friday Oct 30th at 7pm. October 24th, 4:00pm-5:00pm Brave children ages 8-13 are invited to join us for a spooky online reading of R.L. Stine’s Give Yourself Goosebumps book: Beware the Purple Peanut Butter. This is no ordinary book YOU choose the ending! Like an escape room for your ears, Miss Echo will read the book and ask YOU to vote on which direction the story goes. Email Echo Phillips at [email protected] to reserve your spotif you dare! Costumes are encouraged.
