Relaxation Station

It's Finals time round these here parts, and Amy and I feel that it is our responsibility to not only offer a space for students to prepare and study for the finals, but also offer them a place where they can come, relax, and take a moment to breathe.

We've brainstormed a couple of ideas for the Library's Relaxation Station.  We have a puzzle out and ready for the students to work on.  By the end of the second break period (there are two each day during Finals Week), the frame had already been completed!  We also have come coloring sheets out.  Coloring is so therapeutic, so never be ashamed of coloring, even as a teen or adult.

At the end of the week we'll also be offering a Very Merry Morning.  We'll be listening to David Sedaris' recording of his story "SantaLand Diaries" from his collection Holidays on Ice.  We'll also be having our monthly games offering and treats.  

Yes, we definitely want the students to do well on their Finals, but we also want them to have a bit of fun to relieve their stress.  We just hope it doesn't get too loud.



*OOPS!  I forgot to post this before I left for Holiday Break!  I still thought it was cool for everyone to see the puzzle that was completed by the Uni students.  :)
