A special program and recreation opportunity for children will take place on Wednesday, February 28th, when from 4:00 -5:00 pm the Jonesboro Branch of the Jackson Parish Library, in conjunction with the Jackson Parish School District, will host a Mardi Gras SPARC event.

Come join the “krewe” for a lively program for caregivers and their children of the ages 2-4. All children must be accompanied by a parent, caregiver or family member. There is no charge to attend and children will receive take home activities , a Louisiana themed story book and festive Mardi Gras favors, while supplies last. 

The event is planned and facilitated by Jackson Parish Speech-Language Pathologists and designed to promote language development and family growth through story books, songs and crafts.
