This year, we’re celebrating play at the library! Everyone knows how beneficial play is for kids, but did you know that it is equally important for adults? It can be a wonderful stress reliever, boosts creativity, alleviates boredom, and may even lower your blood pressure. To that end, every month in 2024, we’re highlighting a different form of play. Each month we’ll have a bingo-style fun card. If you complete all the activities for a blackout on your card, you’ll receive a special prize. The more of the 12 monthly fun cards you complete this year, the better chance you have to win the grand prize and be crowned our annual play champion!
For December, we’re giving you the chance to spread some Christmas cheer AND also earn credits for fines to be removed from your library card!
All you have to do is complete activities on this month’s fun card. For each activity you complete, you will get $2 in library fines waived from your account. If you black out the card, then you get $20 waived.
Activities include baking (or just eating) a Christmas treat, making an ornament, visiting people, watching a Christmas movie, and listening to live music.
No library fines on your card? No problem!
You can still complete the card for bragging rights and forward the fine credits to someone else.
And if you need ideas for cheer–for the play card or in general–check out this article from Hallmark.
