Reading Ranger Program is Perfect for the Kids

Monday November 9, 2009

With cold weather approaching it's easy to get trapped indoors with the family. But this season, bring the kids out to Weir Farm National Historic Site once a month for a new Reading Ranger program.

From November to April, once a month on Saturday, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., a park ranger will read a story aloud in a cozy historic barn, followed by a related activity exploring the farm's landscape. Story topics will focus on the main themes of Weir Farm National Historic Site so the kids can have fun and learn a lot! The Reading Ranger program is for children in grades K-4, and all children must have a parent/guardian with them for the duration of the program. The program is free, however, registration is required - call 203-834-1896 ext.12.

The dates and topics are as follows. Sign up for one, or many!
