Visit the library to learn about plants and flowers that grow in our area and their importance to the local wildlife and environment. Patrons are encouraged to bring their own small plant or seed packet to trade. You will also get to decorate your own small clay pot to take home and plant flower seeds of native plants. If you’re at home and would like to participate, share a brief video or written statement of some of your favorite plants and how to care for them through email or tag us on Facebook.
Please join us for a movie, popcorn, and company.
Toddlers will using a variety of craft items and a pre-drawn template to create a pet.
How will you escape? Call 601-553-2456 to set up a time to enter the room.
The children will build a bear with the materials given and sign a permission slip for the new bears to participate in a library sleepover. I wonder what mischief the toys will get into?
Teens will be encouraged to work together to make a no-sew blanket to donate. We will talk about different organizations dedicated to helping the homeless in our area. This will also be an opportunity to earn volunteer hours and learn about volunteer opportunities in the Meridian community.
Join your favorite librarians for story time by the playground at Bonita Lakes Park. Be sure to bring a blanket or beach towel and wear your sunscreen.
Don’t we all have a friend we want to send a little happiness to or maybe you need some comfort yourself? Back in the day, it was quite common for people to share recipes and food gifts. Let’s bring that back! Will be making Friendship Soup Mix in a Jar, which is a great gift for someone you love or are concerned about. Be sure to write down your own favorite comfort food recipes and share them with us! All materials will be provided.
Come to the library for a free movie showing of “Lilo and Stitch.”
Toddlers will participate in a scavenger hunt.
