Local library wants to provide more for hsers...what would you ask ...

Quote:

Ours has a storytime and related craft leveled for school age children in various age groups, and it's great, but it's 7:30 at night!!! I would love it if that was offered during the day. Also, craft and sciencey activities during the day, like they offer in summer, would be fantastic during the school year.

THIS!

My boys aged out of 'storytime' at age 5, because our library only offers that for up to kindergarten age. But they LOVED storytime, and they miss it. They enjoy the reading aloud, the crafts, the being with other children.

So if I could get my library to offer a weekly story time for elementary aged homeschool children during the day, we'd be ALL over that.

In fact, you've inspired me to put that in the request box. Again.

ETA: The hands on science experiments would be AWESOME too. My kids would thoughly enjoy that. And there's no reason they couldn't do a large age span, say first through fifth/sixth grade or something. That'd be enjoyable for the kids, I'd think. Again, offering it on a regular (either weekly or bi-weekly) basis and during the day would be key for me. I'd rather they had those programs during the day instead of evenings/weekends. You know, for us homeschoolers. :P
