If you’re looking for things for your kids to do while they’re out on holiday break, the Sewell Mill Library and Cultural Center (2051 Lower Roswell Road) has a few events in store.
Its weekly Classic Movie Thursday screening will be “The Muppet Christmas Carol,” and it lasts from 2-4 p.m. 
Also on Thursday, from 2:30-4:30 p.m., there’s a Freeform Lego Play session that’s for ages 5-12 (plus a required adult caretaker). Participants can build items from Lego Challenge Cards or make something of their own design.
On Saturday is another movie screening, “The House With a Clock in Its Walls, from 6-8 p.m. Rated PG, it’s the story of a 10-year-old boy who lives with an oddball uncle who lives in a house with a mysterious tick-tock noise.
When the boy accidentally awakens the dead, a sleepy town comes to life, revealing a world of witches, warlocks and deadly curses.
On the very last day of the holiday break, Friday, Jan. 4, is an all-day Sherlock Holmes Film Festival, in honor of his birthday. It begins at 1:30 p.m. and features four movies, all rated G, PG or PG-13. Here’s a description of the films being shown. The last film ends around 9 p.m.
All the events are free, and there’s no registration required. You’re also free to bring your own food and drink for the movies in the Black Box Theater.
