Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The people who come to this event will learn about magic and be encouraged to read as well as learning about the country/continent of Australia.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The children enjoyed the magic, especially the dove that changed into a rabbit and the switching of the peanut butter and jelly. They want to learn more about magic, Egypt and India, and all said they would come to another program at the library. The adults appreciated the way the children were engaged the whole time. One parent said "the kids were learning without knowing it because they were having so much fun."
