Your Local Library

Your local library is perhaps one of the least utilized assets in your locality. Most libraries do not charge a membership fee, and if you are on a tight budget then a trip to the library will help you check out that book for free. It is important for parents to make sure that there child gets a library card too. It may not be a bad idea for parents to require their child to read an appropriate age level book once a month. This will help in their vocabulary and help develop command of the english language.
