With March Break fast approaching, the Pembroke Public Library is the place to be for week-long activities for kids of all ages. Many of the programs offered throughout the week are already filled up, says the library’s Anusha Arulnanthi, but there are still plenty of reasons to make it a prime destination this March Break.
The festivities kick off on Saturday, March 14, with a very special theme this year:
The library will be decked out in the style of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory all week long for anyone who wants to stop by and check out the decorations. For added fun, Anusha says there will be something special that goes along with the theme this year:
While most of the other activities planned for the week are filled up, kids can still come to the library to play board games and gather together to read and learn, all while taking in the magic of “Wonka-Land.”
Lego-Land will be available for everyone on Monday, which is also Wonka-themed. All creations will be placed on the shelves for staff to pick a winner at the end of the week. Another fun activity will be the “Canada Extravaganza,” where Canadian-authored books will be available to read, along with Canadian-themed snacks.
Teen activities are also being offered, including “Bejewelled Books,” which is filling up fast, so reach out to the library as soon as you can to secure your spot.
Rounding out the week on Friday will be “Hugs, Snuggles and Rhymes” for the little ones, a storytime for toddlers and babies.
The library will be open all week, except Sunday, during its usual hours, and it promises to be a terrific place to check out over the break:
