Description

Join us at Spotsylvania Towne Center near the Food Court. We will be reading the brand new book "The Cool Bean" followed by an activity.  

This event is free, but we ask that you bring a donation for the Panda Pantry. (see specifics below)

--> Please grab a FREE ticket HERE so that we have enough activities for everyone.


This is the third book in the series from Jory John and Pete Oswald, each book teaches young readers an important lesson to live by: 

  • THE BAD SEED- reminds us that positive change is possible for all of us. 
  • THE GOOD EGG- reminds us of the importance of balance, self-care, and accepting those who we love (even if they are sometimes a bit rotten).


The Cool Bean is the perfect read aloud to kickoff conversations with kids about important topics for building social emotional learning such as:

  • to be kind to others 
  • what empathy is and why it’s important 
  • what it really means to be “cool” 




The Panda Pantry provides meals to children over the weekend who would otherwise go hungry.

  • Peanutbutter crackers
  • Cheese crackers
