Our series of StoryWalk® Sunday adventures for kids continues in July.
The story posted on the StoryWalk® trail at Pine Hill Park will change monthly, and plans call for a special event to accompany each one on the second Sunday of each month.
July’s StoryWalk® Sunday takes us to the sea with fun adventures that happen there.
Kids will join a guided walk along the story trail as they read the book, then make a special craft project to take home.
The featured storybook for July is “Commotion In The Ocean” by Giles Andreae.
“This delightful collection of poems includes fun rhymes about the creatures who live in and around the ocean. Children will delight in the snappy poems and colorful illustrations about whales, walruses, penguins, polar bears, stingrays, and sharks..”
The event is FREE, but pre-registration is required by July 7. To register, email to: [email protected] or call 717-762-0373. Limited to 20 children.
Children in grades K–5 may be dropped off and picked up at 3 p.m. All families are welcome, but activities are geared for preschool and elementary age kids.
Stay tuned for future StoryWalk® Sundays!
Current Covid safety guidelines are being followed.
