Published

on

Samuels Library has added two AWE Early Learning Stations to its children’s area. AWE Learning computers are pre-loaded with more than eighty games and activities that are fun and promote learning for children ages 2-8. These award-winning programs cover many subject areas, such as science, math, reading, and geography.

“I am extremely pleased to have these stations because they provide a huge assortment of both educational and entertaining content. Content features a vast array of subjects: science, math, literacy, writing, typing, and more. The interface is simple, and the content is colorful and easy to use,” noted Michal Ashby, Youth Services Supervisor. “I am super excited and proud to feature such a fantastic product to our community!”

The new AWE computers are available to young patrons in the Youth Services department. Children will appreciate the colorful, easy-to-read keyboards and child-sized mice. The computers can be used for one-hour sessions. Children are encouraged to bring in their own headphones or earbuds or purchase some at the circulation desk.
