The kids and I love Library activities! We have been to some of the most fun, most cultural and most educational events at libraries in Sacramento. The added bonus…and it is a big one…is that they are FREE! Each month I add the library activities happening around the county into the Upcoming Events Calendar, but I thought it would be fun to highlight some of the really neat ones.
Tomorrow, the South Natomas Library is hosting a special music event.
Music from Around the World with Don O’Brien
Celebrate the cultural diversity of musical instruments around the world with musician Don O’Brien. Listen to music from diverse corners of the world, including Africa (double flute from Ghana), Ireland (Irish tin whistle), Native American (Navajo Indian flute), Australia (didgeridoo), Tibet (singing bowls and tingsha), and Italy (baroque recorder). The audience will have the opportunity to play some instruments. All ages are welcome.
When: Wednesday, February 10th, 4:00 pm
Where: South Natomas Library, 2901 Truxel Rd., Sacramento
Info: 916-264-2919 or www.SacLibrary.org
Cost: FREE
Hope to see you there!

My love for exploring and creating experiences with my three kids led to the founding of SacramentoSidetracks.com in 2009. I realized that Sacramento has so much to offer and I was excited to share my findings with other parents. Besides simply having fun, these are the other positive side effects of taking my kids on outings that I’ve discovered: we have quality time together away from the distractions at home, we cultivate our curiosity, learn new things, conversations are triggered by what we see and do, we connect and bond as a family, and we create new memories. Ready to get sidetracked, too? Let me be your guide!
