CLEVELAND —Spring has sprung and families across the state will be looking to spend more time outdoors.
Crocker Park in Northeast Ohio is offering a free reading adventure called the Story Walk.
The Story Walk will feature the children’s book classic, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs by Judi Barrett.
Stacie Schmidt, the vice president of marketing for Stark Enterprises, explained that each participating store at the outdoor mall will place a page of the book in their window, allowing families to explore the premises and find all the pages.
The pages will also feature a prompt or question that adults can ask the children.
“On each page you can actually engage with your kids, ask them a question, ask them to do a little activity like ‘What is your favorite food? What is your favorite book?’” Schmidt said. “To really engage and teach them more about literacy and have a deep conversation with your kids, to make it fun!”
On Saturday, March 30, the Easter Bunny will be at Crocker Park from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The Story Walk will remain until April 8.
