Next week marks Children’s Book Week at the Western Sullivan Public Library (WSPL), with a packed schedule of family-friendly events from May 5 through May 11. With a mix of storytimes, playgroups, movies, and hands-on challenges, WSPL’s Callison Stratton says there’s something for every young reader to enjoy.
This year’s events include Storytime for ages 2 to 6 on May 6 and May 8, featuring read-alouds, songs, and interactive activities. The Wild Things Playgroup, inspired by Where the Wild Things Are, will offer imaginative play and crafts. On May 7, families can gather for Movie Night, complete with popcorn and a family-friendly film.
Rounding out the week is the Rosie Revere, Engineer Design Challenge, where kids can unleash their creativity and build their own inventions, inspired by the beloved picture book.
All events are free, and families do not need to be library cardholders to participate. Registration is encouraged and can be done online at WSPLonline.org.
