The Great River Regional Library branches of Becker and Big Lake are hosting several family friendly events in August. Parents searching for ways to entertain kids until school starts up again may be interested to check out the events themselves.
Back to School Bingo
Kids of all ages can visit the help desk at either the Becker or Big Lake locations to receive a back to school bingo card. Bingo winners will be given their choice of school supplies and a book as prizes.
Take and Make
Creative kids and teens can pick up craft kits to take home. Becker will have kids’ craft kits available every Tuesday and Thursday, and Big Lake will offer kids’ kits on Wednesdays. Big Lake will also have tween/teen kits available on Fridays.
Story Stroll
Families with early readers are invited to come to Story Stroll. Pages from a story will be posted around the Big Lake Independance Elementary School on Mondays and around the Becker Community Center on Tuesdays. Kids and families can walk around and talk about the story in this fun, outdoors event.
