Last year The Green Free Library, along with several other libraries in the state, was lucky enough to receive grant money donated by Preschool Connections and their Public Library Resources for Infant & Toddle Programs. They receive their funding through the Pennsylvania Dept. of Education, Office of Commonwealth Libraries and are supported by the Institute of Museum and Library Services under provisions of the LST act. With this money the library added several new items to its childrens room to encourage (and entice) young children and their parents to utilzes the library's resources.
Even a year later, children are still enjoying these wonderful new items. Creativity is definitely being fostered and enhanced as you can see by these pictures of a "fort" that was made on the sunporch by an industrious and anonymous little visitor.
