Community field trips are an excellent way for children to experience new environments, practice social skills, interact with other children, and expand their vocabulary.
Community field trips can include everyday places, like a store, post office, community park, or a library.
Taking young children to the local library can open their eyes to the value of books, and begin to create a thirst for knowledge.
Many libraries offer free storytimes and special events for young children and families to attend.
In the summer libraries offer special programs for children of all ages.
Libraries also have many resources for parents and children to enjoy at the library, or to check out and enjoy at home.
Check out your local library.
It's a treasure.
