Welcome back from Spring Break!
April 8-14 is National Library Week. If you are like me, you enjoy going to the library and looking at all of the cool stuff. I am always drawn to the books that are on display and I end up checking out a bazillion more than I had planned. I also check out the cookbooks, movies, magazines, picture books and books on cd. Seriously, I can make a day of it!
When I was a kid, I would ride my bike to the library and hang out for hours. Especially during the hot California summers. I also remember going there to research school report topics like Massachusetts, parakeets, and sea otters. The library was my quiet, air-conditioned home away from home.
When my boys were toddlers, I took them to the DuPont Public Library for Story Time every Wednesday. Afterward, we would check out picture books, science books and movies in the children's section. Now that they are older, in school, and have extracurricular activities, we go every other week. My boys like checking out books and playing computer games like Poptropica. I hope they continue to share my love for the library as they get older.
In honor of National Library Week, tell me about your library. What do you like to do at the library? What types of items do you check out? Do you ever do your schoolwork at the library? What's your library story?
Have a great week!
