    Slide 6:Programming for Young Children

    3-8 years old Hands-on explorers Active programming (companion crafts, games, projects) Passive programming (story reading, flannel boards) Open ended activities Effective library programming permits young children to touch, manipulate, create and experiment. By combining active programming with passive programming the special developmental needs of pre-readers and beginning readers can be met. You also accommodate various learning styles. Preparation is the key. Select games and songs with simple directions and lyrics. Select games that rely on luck rather than physical aggression. Open-ended activities enable children to achieve success because there is no one way to make the craft or art project.Effective library programming permits young children to touch, manipulate, create and experiment.
