Summer Saturday: Storybook Adventure

Once upon a time at a playground in Lisle, Illinois, there was a grand festival to tell the stories of the land. Join us at our final Summer Saturday of 2026, where, in collaboration with local libraries, we will be hosting story time at the playground!

There will be story time options available to playground visitors, held every 30 minutes, each at a different part of the playground. Playground visitors can try their hand at finding hidden stickers of famous storybook characters throughout the playground. Our craft activity allows guests to design their own bookmark. Other activities to be announced!

Summer Saturdays are held from 10A to noon at the playground. The event is free, but registration is encouraged, and there is a $5 suggested donation per family. Water bottles from Culligan will be available at the playground. In the event of inclement weather, the Summer Saturday may be cancelled.
