Ringing in the New Year with your favorite librarians may seem far-fetched, but becomes reality with Reedsburg Public Library’s Family Noon Year’s Eve Party on Dec. 31. This year, count down to New Year’s from 11:30 a.m. to noon virtually with Miss Jess and Miss Maxine as they lead the group in New Year’s crafts and party games via the Zoom platform.
Children of all ages are invited to the Noon Year’s Eve celebration. Families who plan to attend should register on the library’s homepage at reedsburglibrary.org at least 24 hours in advance to receive a Zoom invitation via email. Each participating family member also needs his/her own take home kit for the party. The kit includes all of the materials needed for each craft and game. Call the library at 768-READ (7323) to schedule a curbside pickup of all take home kits.
Craft supplies in each kit will allow each participant to make a number of cupcake liner fireworks, pipe-cleaner bead wands, and pom-pom poppers, which eject real pom-poms. All of these may be employed to ring or “pop” in the New Year at noon. In activities, the “paper plate drawing game” will challenge players to really “use their heads” while a technology facilitated interactive I Spy game will have participants on their toes!
Additional activities are included in the take home kits for use if time allows, or for families to do on their own.
Reedsburg Public Library Youth Services librarians Miss Jess and Miss Maxine look forward to seeing their favorite attendees from this past year’s Preschool Storytimes, After School Book Clubs, and Teen Times at the celebration, as well as meeting new participants for the year 2021!
Reedsburg Public Library’s spring schedule for youth services programs begins on Jan. 11. Updates will appear on the library’s homepage.
The library will be operating curbside services only from Dec. 26 through Jan. 3. It will be closed at 1 p.m. on Dec. 31 and closed on Jan. 1. For questions about the Noon Year’s Eve Family Zoom Party or any other library program or service, call the library at 768-READ (7323).
