Borrow Dolls and Activity Kits from the Library!
Did you know the Hamilton Public Library lends out American Girl Dolls and book activity bags? Along with each American Girl doll, the corresponding first book in that American Girl series along with local historical information from the same time period are included in each doll kit. The Hamilton Historical Commission is partnering with the Library to develop these kits, which will help launch our newest Library collection! All four of our dolls – Kirsten, Addy, Josefina, and Kit—were all generously donated by local families and community groups to help the Library share this experience with other children in our community.
Preschoolers and beginning readers might be interested in borrowing our book activity bags!
Families are welcome to borrow a themed bag with a book and corresponding games and storytelling props, and activity ideas inside. Come play and explore with Go, Dog, Go!, Growing Vegetable Soup, Jamberry, Boogie Monster and more! The American Girl Dolls and book activity bags are a great way for area children, families, and young visitors from out of town to enrich their reading experiences—interacting with stories and history in a whole new way!
