Two Winter Traditions in the Children’s Department at Emma Clark

Setauket, NY – January 9, 2020 –

Two events have become winter staples in the Children’s Department at Emma Clark Library, and kids are invited to join the fun!

Score a touchdown with football-themed festivities on Saturday, February 1, known as “Super Bowl Saturday” at Emma Clark.  Simply stop by between the hours of 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. for games and a chance to win a special raffle prize. The Library staff encourages visitors to wear a shirt or jersey with their favorite football team (although not required).

During the school winter recess, on Thursday, February 20, there will be lots of extra excitement in the children’s library. Emma Clark will once again participate in the annual “Take Your Child to the Library Day”, first started in 2012 and now an international movement to raise awareness and to celebrate families taking their kids to the local library.  Between 2:00 – 4:00 p.m., children and caregivers are invited to drop in for carnival games, face painting, temporary tattoos, balloon sculpting, crafts and more.  Plus, each new library card sign-up on February 20 will be entered in a raffle. Library cards are for any age! Parents can get a card for their young one as soon as they are born and immediately start enjoying the Library’s resources, such as the “Time for Baby” and “Baby Start Story Time” classes.

There is no registration for either of these events, and families with kids (up to 6^th grade) are welcome.

If you have any questions, please email kids@emmaclark.org or call 631.941.4080 ext. 123.
