The Playhouse offers its core audience of children aged 10 and under games, movement, stories, and an opportunity to rock out in a sensory-friendly environment while playing songs from musical icons such as the Grateful Dead, David Bowie, The Beatles, and more. Founded in 2013 in New York City, the Playhouse has now expanded to over thirty venues and cities across the United States.
Do you like to play BINGO? Do you have some gifts that you can’t return and just aren’t that into? Come to Pack Memorial with your gift and that unwanted item could be someone else’s treasure! If you win a game, you get to pick a prize from the table. Come join us! All ages are welcome and playing is free.
Prizes this month are donated from the friends of the library and re gifts from anyone who brings something in!
