Most writers are fans of public libraries and I’m
particularly smitten with the D.C. Public Library System.
We’ve spent a lot of time with our bambino at the various locations
near us. Almost every day, one or more of the branches host something fun and
educational for children. We’ve attended the Baby Laptime, although it is time
to move up to the next level for walkers / one year olds.
Our son, who is not yet in daycare, has the chance to meet
other kids, learn from and play with them. We’ve practiced new songs and games
and he’s started to interact with larger groups of children while hearing books
read outside of the home. I've also had some lovely conversations with other caregivers.The reinforcement and skills, couched in games and
laughter, is perfect.
Most of the branches have large children’s areas with a
great selection of books, including board books and foreign language books,
with a play area, small chairs and tables, and games, like puzzles. It is a
good place to stop by even for a short time.
