A lovely Saturday morning. Three experiences. One lovely bookstore. 

This edition of the Pages & Pal Book Barter packs in a super-fun problem-spotting workshop by Code Riite.  Young readers then engage in a thoughtfully designed Ruskin Bond-special story activity followed by the signature Book Barter. 

The Bug Busters Challenge: by Code Riite

• A screen-free coding activity where kids become junior programmers on a mission to find and fix hidden 'bugs' in a sequence of instructions
• Builds computational thinking, logical reasoning, attention to detail, and problem-solving.

Code Riite is a computational thinking initiative that introduces young learners to the fundamentals of coding through hands-on, screen-free activities, helping them build essential skills such as logical thinking, sequencing, pattern recognition, and problem-solving.

The Monsoon Travel Journal: 

• A structured creative writing workshop.
• How it works:
  • The Spark: Kids step into the shoes of stranded world explorers and pen a vintage diary entry
  • The Magic Framework: Using sensory cues of lights, sounds, comforts, they learn to build vocabulary and a creative flow
  • The Takeaway: Every child takes home a premium cardstock travel journal tied with twine.

The Book Barter: 

• Bring a favourite book, share why you love it, and exchange it for someone else's treasured read. A fun way to discover new stories and build confidence in sharing ideas.

The Setting: 

• Floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, cosy reading corners, great coffee, and a vibrant community of readers—The White Crow Books & Coffee is the perfect backdrop for a morning of creativity, stories, and connection.

Special Surprise!

• A book goodie-bag, courtesy The White Crow Books & Coffee, for every participant!
