We offer monthly Take & Make Kits for kids. Take home fun STEAM activities that boost learning and skills. Call us to see what activity we're offering this month! You can pick up the new Take & Make kit at the beginning of each month in the library.
The StoryWalk is a fun seasonal activity that helps families enjoy books while also getting outside and staying active. StoryWalks encourage reading and movement through a series of book pages posted along a short trail. We post seasonal StoryWalks throughout the year in locations throughout the community.
Our "Little Library Boxes" were installed in partnership with Eagle Scout Dashawn Nelson, students from St. Margaret's School, and the carpentry program at Northern Neck Technical Center. The five kids' boxes are regularly filled with free children's books. Locations are:
-
- Watts & Sons Supermarket in Millers Tavern
- Rayz Way Express in Champlain
- Valero in Center Cross
- Bay Aging's bus shelter on Airport Rd. in Tappahannock
- Triangle "park" at the corner of Cralle Ave. & Pegram Lane in Tappahannock
If you have children's books to donate to the Little Library Boxes project, please e-mail brohne@eplva.org or call (804) 443-4945.
