April 1st- May 10th
With Smokey Bear turning 80 this year, we can expect a lot of great activities, events, and ways to help celebrate. This Spring, we are participating in the Smokey Bear Reading Challenge! This challenge is geared for kids 4-10, but all ages are welcome! The goal is to engage youth to read and learn about wildfire prevention, forests, and natural resource careers while exploring their local environment!
Participating is simple:
Just log in to readsquared with your summer reading username and password (if you need help, feel free to come into the library, call (203) 312-5682 or email childrenslibrarian@newfairfieldlibrary.org). Log 3 books to earn a small prize! If you want to learn about wildfires and the environment in honor of his birthday, you can check out the reading list below.
