Norwich Recreation has a new Holiday break program for you.

A variety of new ideas from week to week for you with one kit at a time

Good Morning Norwich,

So school is on a holiday break and you are getting ready to enjoy the holidays, maybe a little differently perhaps this year, however there are still many things to do to keep on keeping on. There is of course all the snow and the many things you can do outdoors, but did you also know that the Norwich recreation department has some fun things that you can do indoors as well. A weekly fun kit that is available for you to enjoy. Take a look for yourself to see the many things you can do during this holiday/winter season.

Have you ever heard someone say, today is "National Talk Like a Pirate Day", or "Local Record Store Day", and wondered just how many obscure holidays there are?  During the holiday break, we will help you explore all the kooky calendar entries we can find, using curated kits.  You will find recipe cards, craft kits, games, etc.  Work at your own pace, or switch up the days - it's all up to you.
