Free wrapping at Library on Saturday

Youth who are active in events at the Ada Public Library have volunteered to wrap Christmas presents for free between 10 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 22. This may be especially helpful for last-minute shoppers going from store-to-store in downtown Ada. Make a purchase, drop it off at the library for wrapping, then continue shopping.

That's right.
These houses look good enough to eat. Several young Ada residents demonstrated their house-building abilities recently in an evening devoted to holiday tradition: creating gingerbread houses.

Construction material included an assortment of jellybeans, candy canes, peppermint candy, gumdrops and, of course icing and graham crackers.
 

 

Kids invited to make a gingerbread house at the library

 

Once again, the Ada Public Library will sponsor two times to make gingerbread houses:
4-7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 13
3-5 p.m. Friday, Dec. 14

If you are looking to entertain kids with something creative and gooey, then building gingerbread houses fits the bill. Sign up ahead of time is required.
