Final Comments: 
I am hoping to build a bit on our supplies specifically for this program. Almost all of our minifigures have disappeared from our collection. I would like to reorder some, but this time collect them separately at the end of the program to be stored (rather than included in the box that is used on the library floor between programs) to make sure they remain with us. I have noticed a significant decline in creativity with the the lack of minifigures available.
