P.J. parties: It’s pajama week at the Sno-Isle libraries. Families with small children can put on their cozies and head to Monroe, Mountlake Terrace or Stanwood for an evening of stories, games and crafts.

Furry friends, the stuffed variety, are welcome too, and the Stanwood library has an added activity: a sleepover for stuffed animals. Tuck them in and say good night, then pick them up in the morning.

The activities begin at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Monroe Library, 1070 Village Way, 360-794-7851; 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Mountlake Terrace Library, 23300 58th Ave. W., 425-776-8722; and 7 p.m. Friday at the Stanwood Library, 9701 271st St. NW, 360-629-3132.

Oly hopefuls: Did you catch Olympics fever yet? School-age kids can take part in the Marysville Library’s Silly Olympics Games at 11 a.m. Saturday.

The library meeting room’s being cleared for skate, ski and other races. No equipment or snow needed.
