Parker Memorial Library invites children ages 4 – 12 to participate in a series of fun and educational Jump Rope and Healthy Snack classes held every Saturday at 1:00 PM throughout October. Beginning October 10th and running through October 31st, these sessions will offer kids the chance to learn and practice jump rope skills, games, and songs, all while enjoying nutritious snacks.
The classes are led by Sulphur High School Cheerleaders Bailey Sullivan and Haelyn Smith, who will guide participants through energetic activities designed to promote physical activity and teamwork. All jump ropes and healthy snacks will be provided by the library. Advance sign-up is required to participate in these free classes.
A special highlight is scheduled for October 24th, when a member of the Murray County 4-H Cooking Club will present a healthy snack demonstration, teaching children delicious ways to make healthy eating fun.
Parker Memorial Library is offering this program as part of a health literacy grant from the Oklahoma Department of Libraries (ODL). The program is funded in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
