USO Kids Story Time: An Afternoon of Tales, Crafts, and Treats!
Join us at the USO Center for an afternoon of laughter, creativity, and fun! This month’s theme is “Hiccup Adventures with The Hiccupotamus.”
📚 Story Time: Get ready to giggle as we read “The Hiccupotamus” by Aaron Zenz, a hilarious tale of a hippo with unstoppable hiccups and the friends who try to help.
🎨 Craft Activity: After the story, kids will create their own “Hiccupotamus Puppet” using craft supplies like paper bags, colorful paper, and googly eyes—perfect for reenacting the story at home!
🍿 Themed Snack: Wrap up the afternoon with a fun snack inspired by the book.
This delightful event is perfect for children ages 2-6 and promises giggles, smiles, and the joy of making new friends.
