Alamo City Moms Blog is proud to partner with the San Antonio Public Library to bring you news of their holiday events and activities throughout December.
The holiday season is a magical time of year in San Antonio. Cooler nights with twinkling lights on every corner and plenty of hot chocolate are what it’s all about. However, it can also be a time of stress, especially for families on a budget. It’s easy to break the bank with holiday gift purchases and so many parties to attend. That’s why I love the San Antonio Public Library. They offer festive activities and events that are completely FREE, educational, and celebrate the cultural diversity of our city. Here’s an overview of things you and your family can do together during the winter break to celebrate the spirit of the season without worrying about over-spending.
Winter Walk | December 1–30 | Parman Branch Library
Enjoy a self-guided walk through a winter wonderland including lights and holiday scenes on the trail in the back of the library.
WinterFest | December 5–21 |Various Participating Libraries
WinterFest is geared to children under the age of five and their caregivers. There may not be snow in San Antonio, but that doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate the season with some warm-hearted winter fun!
