Children's Scavenger Hunt @ North Regional Library: Library Card Sign Up Month! is a free, drop-in activity where kids search the library shelves for hidden pictures of popular books. To participate, stop by the information desk to grab a game sheet, explore the children's department to find the ten hidden images, and return the completed sheet for a small prize. This activity is best suited for toddlers through early elementary schoolers who can search the room with minimal assistance. The event is entirely free, and the library offers a large, stroller-friendly parking lot with no fees. You do not need a library card to participate, though staff can help you sign up for one while you are there. This is a smart weekend stop because it is completely self-paced, indoors, and easy to pair with your weekly book haul. It gives kids a focused task to keep them occupied while you browse the shelves nearby.
