Things to make and try!
Eat Cereal or have a similar box? All you need is foil, tape, and a piece of white paper to make yourself a safe pinhole projector to view the eclipse!
Try it at home, or bring your cereal box (or other small box) to the library and we'll have the rest of the supplies available April 1-8.

Read about it. Write about it. Tell your story!
Of course, the library must showcase Eclipse Stories from around the World!
OR, Delve into some past writers' emotions of the Eclipse
(including Annie Dillard, who grew up in Pittsburgh, PA and viewed an eclipse in Washington state)
