Six Feet of Fun! ¡Seis pies de diversión!
Current health recommendations are to stay six feet away from others, but we can fill that space with fun! Enjoy our library activity challenge at home! Simply color in an inch on a ruler each time you complete one of the activities. Each activity can be completed more than once so you can customize the challenge as you like. Do all reading or try a combination of reading and other activities. Don't have a printer? Create your own rulers at home to keep track of your progress. Once you have completed the program show this coupon for a FREE scoop of frozen custard at the Lake Zurich Culver's! Please use the coupon only once per participant.
Intergenerational Pen Pal Program
A new friendship is only one letter away! The library will be pairing up young folks (grades 2-8) with local senior living residents for a letter-writing exchange. Librarians will deliver letters from the library to senior residences and back again. Please email your child's full name, and grade to childrens1@eapl.org. We will reply with additional information including age appropriate guidelines and writing prompts.
