 Please join Peace for Ponies, a Wareham-based animal rescue, for an awesome barnyard story hour and animal-themed activity! The event will take place outdoors on September 26th from 2-4pm. The admission fee is a $10 donation to the rescue per child. We will be following social distancing guidelines. Please call (508) 667- 8638 or email rosehaseltine13@gmail.com to reserve spots and receive additional information. We hope to see you there!!! ***Children will have the opportunity to meet the rescue animals, including Charles the baby donkey!!***  Peace for Ponies a Program run by Earth Lodge LTD is a 501C non profit that saves animals. Our goal is to teach compassion. We specialize in pregnant miniature horses and donkeys but will take in most animals if we have funds and room. We allow our rescues time to heal and find them amazing homes.
Our future goal is to save babies taken from moms that ship and find them forever homes. We intend to continue to get others involved in animal protection and preserving the earth. We teach compassion through our FB page and have volunteers who grow and learn from the rescues. In the future we would love to be able to have a larger facility, presently we have two stalls which limits us but as you can see we have saved many. We also help place many animals without ever seeing them. Join us as we work to save more.

Wild Moon unlike the other Chesterton book is a short chapter book geared for second grade and up independent readers.

This week we are again joined by Jacob Stapledon from Children's Cove to discuss body safety for our kids. There’s no perfect age for speaking with your children about body safety. Instead, it should be part of an ongoing dialogue from their early years through their teens. Engage your children, talk with them about their bodies, show that you’re available to answer questions, and always create an atmosphere of trust. Jacob provides some great guidelines for our parents and caregivers.
