Free summer activities at Ammanford Library
Free summer activities for children are taking place in Ammanford Library during the school holidays.
They start with the launch of the Creepy House Summer Reading Challenge on July 24 at 11am.
Children aged from four to 10 can listen to stories and decorate their very own creepy house in the library.
Thousands of families across the country take part in the UK’s biggest reading event for children in libraries, the Summer Reading Challenge, run by the charity The Reading Agency.
Each year there is a different theme and the aim of the challenge is to get children to read six books from their library during the summer holidays.
On July 31, a free film show will take place with “Wreck-it Ralph” being screened, the recommended viewing age is eight and over.
Stories and crafts about the seaside take place on a beach inside the library on August 13, from 11am. Seaside Storytime is aimed at children aged between four and 10.
Carmarthenshire’s executive board member for libraries Cllr Meryl Gravell said: “There are lots of fun and free activities for children taking place in our libraries during the summer holidays.
“We hope they will encourage children and their families to visit their local library and see just how much it has to offer.”
Free tickets for the activities are available from the library, children aged eight and under should be accompanied by a parent.
