So have you? Have you been to the library lately? Libraries today have so much more to offer than just books. Not that books are a bad thing, they’re still the main reason we go to the library. But our local libraries are vast resources of FREE family entertainment.
A sampling of a few goings-on at Central Iowa libraries:
- Reading Programs
- DVDs for checkout (family movie night)
- Audio books for checkout (road trip)
- Puppets for checkout (home entertainment)
- Story Times (several age levels)
- Kid Activities (book clubs, video game clubs, Lego clubs, arts and crafts, music classes)
- Teen Activities (book clubs, video game clubs, Lego clubs, arts and crafts, movie parties)
- Family Movie Nights
- Special Events (magicians, zoo animals, princess parties, holiday events)
- Online Resources (digital books, audio books and music)

The list could go on and on.
