Berlin Peck Library Hosts Some 'Messy Fun'

On Wednesday June 26, the place to be was at the Berlin Peck Memorial Library for some "Messy Fun."

As one of the library's first hands-on summer activities for the "Dig into Reading Campaign," a group of approximately 15 first through third grade children worked together and had fun tearing up old, used paper and UPcycling it into a new useful, seed paper book mark. 

Seed paper is handmade paper that has real flower seeds embedded in the pulp itself and is actually plantable!

Some of the next hands-on projects at the library in Berlin will include "Fossil Making" on July 17, "Creating a Gorgeous Garden Stone" on July 31, and "Making a hatchable Dinosaur Egg" on August 7.  

All activities are at 1 p.m. at Berlin Peck Memorial Library for children entering K-3. Patrons from Berlin and surrounding towns are asked to register their child(ren) starting July 9, as space is limited and participation is on a first come first serve basis.
