“Every year, this is just something cool to see”
"It’s always clear that the bigger the gift during the holiday season, the more fun children will have with the box that contained it. That’s why the Franklin Public Library’s annual “Box City” event in late December has become so popular.
Children’s Librarian Caleigh Keating hosted the third annual Box City event on Friday afternoon. Children from Franklin and surrounding communities came to create the mini-municipality in the gathering room at the library.
With dozens of donated boxes, egg cartons and other items, children were able to fill the room with their own box structures and other designs, creating Box City.
Keating said the event is a success every year."Continue reading the article online (subscription may be required)
