Read, create, discover and explore through hands-on activities. Leave your worries behind and learn about Guatemalan Worry Dolls, then make one of your own! Children must be currently attending Kindergarten through 5th grade to participate in this program.
K-5th Adventures: Worry Dolls is a free, hands-on cultural crafting workshop for elementary school students at the Morrisville Community Library. Children will listen to a story about the tradition of Guatemalan worry dolls and then use simple crafting materials to build their own miniature dolls to help ease bedtime anxieties. This program is strictly limited to children currently enrolled in kindergarten through fifth grade. The event is entirely free, and all crafting supplies are provided by the library. Parking is available in the main lot directly in front of the Town Hall Drive building, but spots can fill up quickly on weekday evenings when the library is busy. This mid-week activity offers a calm, structured environment for your child to wind down after school. It is an excellent opportunity for kids to practice fine motor skills while learning about a comforting global tradition that they can use at home.
