Yarn Explorers: Finger Knitting Club for Kids

Eastchester Public Library · Eastchester

A knitting club for beginning crafters--no needles needed! Using just your two hands, you can create fun things out of yarn! Finger knitting is a great way to introduce kids to knitting and crochet. It's easy to pick up and produces results quickly, so your little knitter will feel super proud of themselves by the end of the session! We'll make a seasonally appropriate pumpkin! Registration required. Suggested for ages 7+. Not a drop-off program, please stay and knit with your child. Knitting has numerous mental, physical, and emotional benefits for knitters of all ages. Knitting encourages focus, problem solving, and pattern recognition. In order to make any knitted piece, knitters need to plan ahead, organize their thoughts, and follow through to completion. The act of knitting improves fine motor skills and finger dexterity as well as boosting patience and self-confidence! Studies have also shown that knitting is a stress reliever--contributing to a person's mental well-being by promoting mindfulness and tranquility.

PreK Drop-in Art

Eastchester Public Library · Eastchester

Join us for a simple and cute art project! No registration required. Ages 2+ Art is more than scribbles and glitter. It encourages critical thinking, problem solving, and decision making -- all of which are important skills that we can foster from a very young age. When creating art with toddlers, it's important to remember that the attention span at this age is very short, under 10 minutes! Keep the experience short and fun! Follow their lead and let them decide where things should go and what colors to choose. Arts and crafts are often one of the earliest ways children can make decisions for themselves. There is no right or wrong!
