Library of Things Adds New Instruments, PUzzles & Games
Whether you’re hosting a “Friendsgiving,” snowed in, home for the holidays, or just plain bored over break – the Library of Things offers plenty of ways to make this winter amazing, including many exciting NEW arrivals to the collection!
Play a board game to get the holiday party started with some friendly competition! We’ve added over twenty new games to the collection this semester, from classics like Battleship, Scrabble, and Trouble, to new favorites like Wavelength, Azul, and Monikers. We’ve even added some RPGs like Mausritter and The Quiet Year for those looking for a more immersive experience!
Learn an instrument, because nothing beats cabin fever like picking up a new hobby! This semester, we’ve added bongo drums for percussion and a headphone amplifier for quieter practice sessions!
Piece together a puzzle and relax while also boosting your mental agility! We recommend the Women in Art puzzle, featuring a diverse array of fifteen accomplished artists, from well-known figures such as Frida Kahlo and Georgia O’Keefe to lesser-known trailblazers including nineteenth-century African American sculptor Mary Edmonia Lewis and Hopi-Tewa ceramic artist Nampeyo!
Try your hand at crafting and create a truly unique, handmade gift for your loved one! This semester, we’ve added an art projector, calligraphy set, AND weaving loom to the collection!
