Library EventBooks to Cooks Club: Winter Solstice Yule Cake & Pomanders

Tuesday, December 10, 2024 - 4:00pm to 5:00pm

12/10/2024 4:00pm 12/10/2024 5:00pm Books to Cooks Club: Winter Solstice Yule Cake & Pomanders Join us on the second Tuesday of every month for a new Books to Cooks Club, where read a picture book and make a delicious after school snack from the story! This program is for K-6th grade. The Winter Solstice, coming up on December 21st, marks the shortest day of the year, as well as the official beginning of winter—a phenomenon caused by the tilt of the Earth’s axis away from the sun. Although it's the day of greatest darkness, the Solstice is a time of great hope, as we start to move towards the Summer Solstice once again. Today we will read a new Winter Solstice book by Kate Allen Fox, called "Winter Solstice Wish," and we will learn about a few solstice traditions. For our treat we will use snack cakes to create mini-yule log cakes and use citrus to make pomanders to take home! Please let staff be aware of any food allergies if attending any Books to Cooks Club programs. Iowa City Public Library Iowa City Public Library America/Chicago public
