In preparation for Fort Bend County Libraries’ Summer Reading Club, which begins May 27, the regularly scheduled, weekly children’s programs at all locations, except George Memorial Library, will NOT take place in May. The weekly children’s programs – such as Toddler Time, Story Time, and the After-School Breaks/School-Age Programs – will resume their summer schedule in June.
The children’s programs at George Memorial Library in Richmond will take place at their normally scheduled days and times for the first three weeks in May. They will resume in June after a 2-week break at the end of May. Click here for the May schedule of children’s programs at George Memorial Library.
As an alternative, three of the libraries have special programs planned in recognition of Mother’s Day. Families with children of all ages are invited to celebrate all the mothers, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, or other motherly figures in their lives.
- Saturday, May 4, 2:00 pm -- Sugar Land Branch Library, Meeting Room -- “Movie with Mom”
This family movie is a newly released sequel to a classic musical about a magical nanny. Decades after her original visit, the nanny returns to help a now-grown Jane and Michael Banks, along with Michael’s three children, through a difficult time in their lives. Through her unique magical skills, and with the aid of her friend Jack, she helps the family rediscover the joy and wonder missing in their lives. The movie is rated PG.
