SUMMARY:Hieroglyphs: Create a Cartouche!
DESCRIPTION:One of the oldest writing systems in the world\, Egyptian hieroglyphics date back over 5\,000 years.

SUMMARY:Breakout Box: The Earth's Break Up
DESCRIPTION:Stop by the youth desk to pick up our newest Breakout Box and unravel the clues by yourself or with friends. This time: Congratulations! You have been invited to a FREE movie night to learn about Pangea and how the Earth’s plates split! But\, wait. There’s a catch. When you get there\, you find out that you’re actually traveling back in time and have to use survival skills and your knowledge of the location of the plates in order to survive and return to current time. You only have 40 minutes to use your knowledge and the clues provided to return to the current time or you will be stuck in the time of the dinosaurs…forever.
