Take Your Child to the Library This Winter

Danbury Library Celebrates the Positive Impact of Local Libraries on Children and Families

This February, join Danbury Library and thousands of libraries across the nation in celebrating Take Your Child to the Library Day with free, fun activities for children and families.

Mark your calendar for Saturday, February 1, from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., and bring the whole family to experience a day filled with hands-on creativity and imaginative play. Activities include playdough stations, sand art, painting, and other crafts designed to delight and inspire budding artists and young adventurers.

Thanks to a generous donation from the Friends of the Danbury Library, each child who attends will receive a free book to take home, supporting the library’s mission of fostering lifelong reading habits. Reading together as a family not only strengthens bonds but also expands vocabulary, enhances focus, and nurtures a love of reading from an early age.

Participate in the Winter Reading Challenge

Extend the fun by joining the Winter Reading Challenge, a program designed for readers of all ages to explore new topics, genres, and winter-themed stories. Families can track their progress together or compete with each other using Winter Reading Bingo boards.

Pick up a Bingo board at the library's Information Desk and start marking the books you read between now and the end of February.

  • Complete one row for a chance to win a cozy gift basket.
  • Complete the entire board to earn an additional entry into the drawing!

The first 100 participants to claim Bingo will receive a coupon to Chick-fil-A, and the grand prize drawing will be held on March 3rd.

As a cornerstone of the Danbury community, the library strives to serve as a welcoming hub, responsive to the diverse needs of the city, and a source of inspiration through words, ideas, and shared experiences.

Bring your children to explore, play, and discover the joy of learning at this special event. See you at the library!
