Keeping Up With Kids

I’m in charge of content for the YSS Blog this month, which means I’ve been collecting great posts from some of the librarians in our system who are YSS members.  In case you don’t follow that blog, I want to draw your attention to a few posts from this month so far:

Creative Learning Center Invites Play in Amery about Amery’s new early literacy play area

All Aboard the Literacy Train about a literacy fun night in Chippewa Falls

Props for Cool Props Workshop about a storytelling prop workshop Eau Claire held for area daycare providers  (the link for this one isn’t working right now, but it is April 11’s post).
