A monthly program that features a story, a craft and a baking project inspired by a different American Girl™ character. Discover what life in Alexandria was like in Molly McIntire's™ era this October!
Discover what life was like in Alexandria with American Girl™ characters! This virtual program will feature a different American Girl™ each month. We will read an excerpt from their book, craft, play trivia games, and explore what Alexandria was like during their time period. October will feature Molly McIntire™ and what World War II like for Alexandria.
Watch the program video on our YouTube channel. Make sure to be on the lookout for an extra baking video with Miss Lisa who will show us how to make recipes from the American Girl™ books!
Craft kits are available to take home. All kits include two crafts - one for you and one for your doll or stuffed animal. Kits also include craft instructions, prizes and fact sheets about Alexandria's local history.
Schedule a curbside appointment to pick up your Molly McIntire™ craft supply kit - just write "MOLLY CRAFT KIT" in the notes field. Kits can also be picked up in person at the Kate Waller Barrett children's reference desk while supplies last. Ask any staff member for help. One kit per child. No substitutions. Craft kits are available beginning October 16. Kits are only available at the Kate Waller Barrett Branch.
