During Screen-Free Week, Russell Library, Middletown Public Schools,
HealingNatureCT, and the Rockfall Foundation will be hosting a series
of events, including storytimes and an art program at the library, a
hike at the Guida Farm Conservation Area, and a special presentation for
families on social emotional learning by Scarlett Lewis, founder of the
Jesse Lewis Choose Love Movement.
Storytimes at the Russell Library are:
On Monday 4/30 at 6:30PM: Middletown School Readiness presents at Wilbert Snow Elementary School: “Choose Love at Home.” Parents are invited to listen to Scarlett Lewis, founder of the Jesse Lewis Choose Love Movement, to learn about their new social emotional learning program for families. Children are also welcome and Screen-Free activities will be provided for them. This event is open to Middletown preschool and elementary school staff, parents and children. Seating for adults and chaperones for children are limited so this is a first come, first serve event.
And on the final day of Screen-Free Week, May 6th, Beth Lapin of HealingNatureCT, in cooperation with the Middletown Department of Recreation and Community Services, will lead a hike at the Guida Farm Conservation Area from 10:00-11:30 AM. This easy hike is great for families and children. Get outside and away from screens. Space is limited and pre-registration for this hike is required.
