Library Time

Before a trip to the library, the caregiver can have a conversation with the children about something they're interested in (firetrucks? tae kwon do? plants? pirate stories?). Once at the library, the caregiver can help the children use the computers to find age-appropriate books on the topics, both fiction and nonfiction. Though I have my doubts about whether children growing up now will ever have to know how to really use a library, it's still a good skill if in principle only, to know how to take an interest and use resources to learn more about it/enjoy it more fully.
