Dear fellow Hanoverians:
I absolutely love all of the creative outdoor programming that is going on
because of the pandemic. There’s a silver lining to all of this craziness!
Here’s the latest good news from the John Curtis Library:
The John Curtis Library will be hosting a Story Walk from August 17 through
August 28 on the grounds of the library and the Stetson House. The
featured book is In the Small, Small Pond by Denise Fleming. The activity
is provided by the South Shore Family Network with funding from the MA
Dept. of Early Education and Care.
Story Walk is a fun educational activity that places the pages from a
children’s story book along a walking route. It helps build children’s
interest in reading while encouraging healthy outdoor activity for both
children and their grown-ups.
The pages of the story are set out 10 to 12 feet apart and to be viewed by
family groupings including an adult responsible for children in attendance.
The targeted age range is for families with children from 3 to 5 years
old, but all children in a family are welcome to attend. This is a
self-guided outdoor activity, set up for two weeks; it is free and open to
the public each day.
Story Walks combine the pleasure of reading wonderful children’s books
with the joys and benefits of walking together outdoors.
For more information, please call 781-826-2972, extension 4, or email the
children’s librarian at lcampbell@ocln.org.
