Take & Make Craft Kits
Pick up a craft kit for children to take and make at home. All Library locations have a limited number of craft kits containing an instruction sheet and items to create a craft. New crafts are available on the first Monday of each month. Additional supplies may be required and will be noted on the instruction sheet.
Spooky season is here, and it’s time to make a fun monster friend! These craft roll monsters can be whatever you want them to be—a mummy, a zombie, an alien, or something totally unique.

NOLA Readers 2.0
NOLA Readers 2.0 is a club for second graders who love to read. This year our activities center on the book My Daddy Is A Cowboy, written by Stephanie Seales and illustrated by C. G. Esperanza.
There are two ways to participate:
Field Trips:
Participating second grade classes will take field trips to both the Louisiana Children’s Museum and New Orleans Public Library’s Main Library.
If you are an interested second grade teacher, fill out our interest form to book your free field trip.
At Home:
Check out My Daddy Is A Cowboy from the Library. Then, print and download the activity book—coming soon! Work together as a family to build reading and critical thinking skills.
