Libraries are places of wonder for young children. All of the books, displays, and things to discover! Here is a simple lesson on learning about the local (or school) library. After a fun role-play on going to library and getting some books, children go on a field trip to the library. Hopefully, an arrangement can be made to have an adult meet them and read a story to them while they are there.
