Parkland Community Library, South Whitehall Township, recently offered some summer fun for kids at their Solar Oven Tinker Lab program.

Parkland Head of Youth Services Librarian Jackie Hoimes explained how to make the solar oven using a small cardboard box which she gave to each child.

Then, she explained where to glue two squares of aluminum foil, and a sheet of plastic wrap.

And, she finally gave everyone a stick to prop open the oven.

There were more than 20 kids who were anxious to construct the solar oven and then to be able to make s’mores in it.

All those in attendance constructed the ovens in the library, but then took their oven home to make and eat the s’mores.

Teen volunteers Jarsha Borker, Riva Kaneria and Ethan Mondeaux assisted at the event.
