Why not visit your local library with your youngsters? My grandchildren enjoy going there, even though they’re teenagers. Many libraries nowadays offer programs and opportunities other than the traditional reading and checking out of books. Most of these programs are free of charge, too.
- Craft programs
- Movie afternoons and nights
- Special entertainers
- Movies to check out
- Audio books to check out
- Books to download
- Book discussion groups for youngsters and adults
- Dressing up as book characters
- Theme days and special programs
- Workshops for writing, blogging, storytelling
You’ll discover this a great congregating place for youngsters to find enjoyable pursuits there and to continue at home. Most libraries nowadays have a web site where these opportunities are posted. Also, you usually can subscribe to an e-mail newsletter that keeps you updated.
What have you found at your library lately?
