Thank you for the little things – story trail

Our winter story trails take inspiration from the heartwarming picture book, “THANK YOU for the Little Things” This uplifting children’s book is a celebration of the small things that bring us joy and happiness. We all have bad days and sad days, but sometimes it’s the smallest things that make us smile! Let’s all say thank you for the little things!

Head to the library to receive your check sheet and instructions for the trail route, which will be located nearby. Dress accordingly for the weather, but don’t let it discourage you from participating. In case of severe weather, the library staff may move the trail indoors. Additionally, the library may be offering a storytelling session of ‘Thank You for the Little Things’ and themed craft activities. Please inquire at the library for further details.

Recommended for families with children up to age 8.
