Two Big Events in The Kid’s Department at Emma Clark This Winter
Are your kids saying they're bored? Fight the winter blues, and come to Emma Clark Library for two special events for children of all ages.
Kick off Super Bowl weekend with football-themed festivities on Saturday, February 2. Simply drop in the Children’s Department at Emma Clark Library between the hours of 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. Play games and enter for a chance to win a special raffle prize. The Library staff encourages visitors to wear a shirt or jersey with their favorite football team (but this is not required). Be sure to catch the fun!
During the school’s winter break, Emma Clark will once again be participating in “Take Your Child to the Library Day”, an international movement to raise awareness for libraries. Stop by on Wednesday, February 20 between 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. for carnival games, face painting, temporary tattoos, balloon sculpting, crafts and more.
Additionally, in keeping with the festivities of “Take Your Child to the Library Day”, each new library card sign-up on February 20 will be entered in a raffle. You’re never too young for a library card! Parents can get a card for their young one as soon as they are born and immediately start enjoying the Library’s resources, such as the “Time for Baby” classes.

According to the American Library Association, Americans go to libraries more than three times as frequently as they go to the movies. “Take Your Child to the Library Day” showcases the significance of libraries as a community hub, a foundation of education, and a source of entertainment and enrichment. This event encourages parents to take full advantage of their local library and emphasizes the importance of libraries to our future generation.
There is no registration for either of these events, and families with kids of all ages (residents or nonresidents) are welcome. Meet up with friends – or make new ones – at Emma Clark!
