Although some other area events were canceled due to questionable weather on Wednesday, the Westfield Washington Public Library (WWPL) didn’t let a little wind and rain spoil their foam-filled fun.

“It’s probably our most popular event,” said WWPL Assistant Director for Public Services Nancy Haggard. “Everybody asks for it.”

With the support of Apex Benefits, WWPL offered four sessions of foamy fun and games with Foam Happy of Indiana. Haggard said all four sessions were booked with 75 kids each and 10 to 12 kids on the waiting list, and children of all ages seemed to be having a blast on the new building’s large north patio.

The Foam Happy cannon can cover an approximately 30-foot by 30-foot area in five feet of dye-free, hypoallergenic, pet-friendly foam in a matter of minutes. The biodegradable bubbly foam is also safe for grass and designed to dissipate in the sun.

Check out WWPL’s upcoming children’s events like Science Heroes: Adventure of the Lost Treasure on July 18, Funtime Adventure Magic Show with Daniel Lusk on July 22, and Library Mini Golf on July 30 and 31.
