Donations accepted!

The library is always in need of donations. Some things that we seem to always be in need of are pencils, cap erasers, paper, and small treats (stickers, bookmarks).
 
The paper would be for the children to draw on in "extra" time after we have our lesson and after they check their books out. The paper can be "nice" copy paper or it can be any kind of paper that you have at your house that you don't use anymore. For example, I found a box of old dot matrix printer paper at my parent's house this summer. That was the kind that was all connected and had the edge that attached to pins on the printer (a few of you might remember what I am talking about!). Anyway, after we separated the pages and tore off the edge, it has been great paper for the children to draw on. Other kinds of paper they like: small pads of paper, stationary, envelopes, old lined notebooks that you aren't going to use.
 
The items in the picture below were given by one student and her mother. It was fantastic! It felt like Christmas morning!
 
The picture below was another donation. Perfect!!
I give a small treat to all students who stay on their green dot during class time. The treat is most often a sticker, so the stickers that were donated (below) were super! I don't ever give food, but I have given bookmarks, athletic cards, etc. If you or your workplace have any small items to give way, please keep us in mind!

None of this has to be brand new either!! If you have some stickers, for example, and you have used half of them and want to donate the rest, that is perfectly fine!
