The Polar Express!

I love our library! The children's department is wonderful, they have story time, and fun activities going on all of the time! At Christmas time they do the Polar Express activity. You have to register for this, and spots usually fill up really fast. They had story time first and read the Polar Express, Lucas sat still for this for about five minutes before he was up and moving around (oh well). At the end of the story they handed out a little pouch with a bell and a token to use at Santa's Workshop! We then took a ride on the trolley around the block and ended up just down the street from the library at "Santa's Workshop." Things did not go well with Santa, Lucas did not enjoy this part at all, though he really enjoy Santa's workshop where they had a bunch of nice toys. Everyone could pick a toy and pay with your token. Lucas wandered around for several minutes, he would pick something up, and a few minutes later find something else that caught his eye! In the end he ended up getting some bounce balls! (Not a surprise.) The really challenge was deciding what kind of ball he wanted because that is what he was interested in was all of the different balls!
