## About this plan

Have you ever wondered what happens when a child feels afraid? The BibloRed Kids Philosophy Club offers an afternoon to talk as a family about that knot in your stomach when something scares you.

The session starts with a shared picture book and hands-on art activities so kids and their families can give fear a name. The goal is to see fear not as an enemy but as a signal that protects us and sometimes asks for help.

It is a free event at Biblioteca Pública Virgilio Barco in Teusaquillo. A reason to spend time with books, raise questions, and build community around the feelings of the youngest kids.

- Shared picture book reading
- Hands-on art workshop for kids and families
- Free library gathering
- A space to talk about fear together
- Part of the Territorio de Infancias program

## Who it's for

A great pick for families with young children, teachers, and caregivers who want to talk about emotions through books and play in a calm, free setting.

## Tips

- Arrive about 15 minutes early to grab a good spot in the room.
- If you bring several kids, sit close to the facilitator so everyone can hear.
- After the reading, keep the talk going at home with simple questions: when did you feel afraid today? what helped you?
- Check BibloRed if the event needs sign-up or works on a first-come basis.
- Take time to explore other areas of Biblioteca Virgilio Barco, like the children's reading rooms.
