FINDLAY, OHIO  (WLIO) - The Findlay Hancock County Public Library is ringing in the New Year for kids and parents about 12 hours early. 

Findlay-Hancock Co. Public Library invite families to celebrate early at Noon Year's Eve Party

No matter what kind of activity the library puts on, they hope the families take away the importance of picking up a good book.

Their Noon Year’s Eve Party has been going on for a few years now and continues to grow each year. There were over 200 kids and parents taking part in this year's celebration, which included a balloon drop, making 2025 hats, and coloring pages. Library staff also read books about parties and New Year’s Eve to the kids to help set the mood. No matter what kind of activity the library puts on, they hope the families take away the importance of picking up a good book.

“I think it is really important for us to bring out families and build community and get people out celebrating together and making connections. Coming out into the library and enjoying a story. Getting more books into the community as well. I do a lot of storytime throughout the year, and all of our events are really aimed at literacy and reading and enjoying good stories,” says Nicole Cramer, Children’s Associate, Findlay-Hancock Co. Public Library.
