Design an Online Hero

in partnership with Mysh

For kids and tweens ages 7 to 12 years old.

About the Program

Kids start by designing their very own hero on a physical card: choosing their strengths and flaws, and bringing their character to life with markers on paper. Then comes the Big Reveal: their hero appears on a large screen, speaks to them in a unique voice, and they discover which magical Myshling companion has chosen them. Every child leaves with a printed sticker of the hero they created, something uniquely theirs to take home.

Sessions are self-paced, so kids can stop by at any point and jump right in. Groups are welcome too!

Presented in partnership with Mysh. Mysh is a social storytelling game made by Feel Good Interactive, designed to spark creativity, collaboration, and a love of storytelling in kids.

This is a drop-in program for kids and tweens ages 7 to 12 years old. 

Please note, a caregiver must remain in the library while children under 10 years of age attend a program.
