Join Us For A Fun April In The Children's Department

3/31/2022

April is going to be hopping in the children's department! From a weeklong celebration of spring break to a new evening program, we've got programming for children of all ages.

Spring Break Madness

Each day during spring break will have a different theme: game day, Monday, April 4; Lego day, Tuesday, April 5; “Where’s Waldo” day, Wednesday, April 6; and play dough and clay creation day, Thursday, April 7. On these days, children can drop in during library hours to enjoy activities tied into the day’s theme. There will be a special Lego Jell-O program from 2-3 p.m. April 5, with a showing of “The Lego Batman Movie” following at 6 p.m.

The week culminates with a tour at 2 p.m. Friday, April 8, of Sweetwater, 5501 US 30 West, in Fort Wayne. Everyone will meet at Sweetwater for the tour, which will include the company's history, a peek at its behind-the-scenes recording studios, a chance to go down its giant slide and more. Space is limited to 25 people, so registration is required. Register in person at the library or online at https://bit.ly/3CEyqjM. If you have questions or have plans change after registration, contact Rebekah Sceniak at rksceniak@syracuse.lib.in.us or (574) 457-3022.
