Kids' Library Card

An added benefit to giving a child their own library card is access to educational exercises on the internet.  The Snohomish County Libraries offer educational games and tools from pre-k through Grade 5.  In checking out the pre-K material, we found our 3 year old granddaughter enjoying it immensely, and learning.  We've heard so much about ABCmouse.com, but can't imagine anything it can offer beyond the Library's offering and there is no cost.  Mobile access is also available.
