International Take Your Child to the Library Day

Children of all ages are welcome to take a special storywalk around Rodman Public Library on February 7, which is international Take Your Child to the Library Day.
Between 10 a.m. and noon, patrons will be able to follow the story “Snow Falls” by Kate Gardner around the library. Along the way, they will encounter stations that will feature a number of STEAM winter-themed activities, including those that will allow youngsters to explore states of matter, snow and animal tracks, how snow reflects light, camouflage through a hide-seek-animal hunt, measuring snow, and making your own ice cream. Along the way, there will also be a craft and a station where kids will assemble a felt snowman. Kids will also experience a snowball fight using fabric snowballs and sock skating on a synthetic ice rink.
Assisting with the program will be student volunteers from the University of Mount Union who are completing a capstone project.

Bluey will also make an appearance.

At the end of the afternoon, each child will receive a free winter-themed book.
