Annual Gingerbread Jamboree Returns – Virtually!

The popular program loved by kids and families, The Gingerbread Jamboree – will return this year, but on the library system’s Facebook page.  The Gingerbread Jamboree is an interactive program filled with a gingerbread read-aloud, puppet show, Grab-and-Go Kits for at-home fun, and more virtual experiences and surprises over Facebook Live. 

Gran-and-Go Kits include a craft, science experiment with an interactive video program that accompanies it on Facebook Live, a story retelling activity, and more!

The event is usually held at Handley Library with several hundred attendees but will be virtual due to safety precautions for COVID-19. 

When:  Saturday, December 19th at 2PM on Facebook at www.facebook.com/handleyregional

“The community looks forward to this event during the holidays and we wanted to do our best with the resources we have to not disappoint,” says John Huddy, Director of Handley Regional Library System.  “We’re working hard behind the scenes to bring some extra ‘jolly’ to this event including activity kits families can use at home to keep the excitement going.  You’ll definitely want to be a part of the online program!”
