Word Games

Word Games comes to the Plaza Branch of the Kansas City Public Library on Friday, November 6, from 5:30 to 7:30 PM. It's a kids' word games activity, and it's part of the library's Friday Night Family Fun series, a program of hands-on activities for children and families. The whole series is aimed at ages 3 and up, so it's a good bet for families with little ones.

Word Games isn't the only thing the library's running under the Friday Night Family Fun umbrella. The series also includes Classic Board Games and Strategy Games, and a run of Fall Fun sessions like HalloSTEAM, Monsters and Haunted Houses. This particular session falls during International Games Month, which the library is marking with these game-focused programs. The library frames the word games format as a way for children to boost their vocabulary and practice problem-solving.

If you're planning to go, there are a couple of practical things to keep in mind. ADA accommodation is available upon request, so let them know ahead of time if you need it. The library also notes that it may videotape or photograph events for marketing purposes, which is standard for their public programs. The session runs from 5:30 to 7:30 PM on Friday, November 6, at the Plaza Branch.
