We love our public library. We visit
the library weekly and always leave with a good size stack of books
for each of us. We especially enjoy all the programs during summer
reading that they offer for school aged children. Throughout the
school year we attend the monthly Lego club and bi-weekly story hour.
The story hour we attend is for preschool age (4-5 yrs old), so this
will be Gabi's last year for that program. There are occasional
events for school age children during the school year in addition to
Lego club but they are not on a regular basis and seem to be more
patterned along with holidays. I would love if our library would
offer more for the K-5th crowd. I've brought it up with
our local branch and recently emailed the main branch to see if they
would be interested in starting a monthly daytime program for K-5th
geared toward homeschooling families. Let's hope I get a good reply
back. I have a list of interested families and ideas from other
counties who's library offer programs for homeschoolers ready to go
should the library be willing to work with us.
