AWE Early Literacy Stations are here!

We're so excited to announce the arrival of our AWE Early Literacy Stations! These self-contained, educational touch screen computer stations are loaded with programs for children ages 2-8. They contain over 60 top-rated, educational games which support early literacy and school readiness skills while making learning exciting and engaging. These machines are funded through donations from our Membership Drive. We hope you'll stop by the Children's Department and try them out!
