Library System: Washington County Free Library
Top 3 things learned:
- How to host a dance party for children of all ages
- How to host a digital camp for pre-school aged children to learn how to use laptops and tablets
- About key skills and knowledge families need to effectively use technology in developmentally appropriate and intentional ways with young children
How to implement:
I've been hearing about libraries having dance parties, especially for active little ones, and have thought about trying to do one. Now, I've heard someone talk through the process (scheduling, picking music, structure), and I feel more confident in how to go about the planning process. The presenter mentioned a Noon Year's Eve Party- that might be a fun time to start! The presenter mentioned using primarily traditional kids music, such as Jim Gill, Greg and Steve, Laurie Berkner, etc.
Additional learning:
The keynote speaker, Tanya Baronti from the Fred Rogers Center, sparked my interest in investigating the Center's work regarding children and technology.
