That's a good idea though! I'm going to check because that would SO awesome. I've already paid $12 in over due book fees! I don't really mind because it's money that goes directly to the library. But I'd much rather spend my money in their used book section and take a few books home with me than just give them mah money! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109200 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 23:03:22 +0000 MamaCate 1109200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went weekly when it was really hot over the summer. LO is still little and likes to run around but it was a good way to blow off steam and she enjoyed picking out some books and reading them when we got home.</p> <p>@banana: my library emails me to remind me the books are due. is that something you can set up on your account? it is the only way i avoid late books, and you can renew them online if you can't make it over there... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109178 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 22:43:30 +0000 sandy 1109178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love the library too! We go for several different story times at several different libraries :). LO just started a 2s drop off program this fall and it's during the days/times that we see our library friends. We are so sad to miss it and miss all of our friends. We met so many great moms and kiddos at story time </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109168 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 22:24:37 +0000 HLK208 1109168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! We love the library and go often (it's a 5 minute walk from my house too). We go to story time every now and then - it was great during the 2.5-3 age when he wasn't in preschool too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109167 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 22:21:30 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1109167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sunny: fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109159 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 22:14:13 +0000 sunny 1109159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love the library and go multiple times a week for storytime!</p> <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Awesome that there is storytime in another language! We attend the Cantonese language one in addition to the normal English language one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109154 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 22:09:48 +0000 fancyfunction 1109154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! We try to go once a week for storytime. I've been taking her since she was 4 months. We met some other moms and have been doing weekly playdates with them too. Also, my library has a great section of donated books that can be purchased for $1 each. I've gotten some really great finds there - especially board books, of which I can't justify some of their high prices! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109140 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 21:50:02 +0000 Cole 1109140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: I always wind up with over due books too, I just look at it as supplementing their measly budget :wink: . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109086 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 21:15:41 +0000 pregnantbee 1109086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the library! Also helps that I'm a librarian :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109080 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 21:12:01 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1109080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have taken him and he doesn't sit and read the books. We read a ton at home but at the library he would rather watch all the other kids, take the books off the shelves, climb on the chairs and table, take artwork off the walls etc... We are better off borrowing books from the library and reading at home. He is only 18 months though so I hope soon enough he will enjoy it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1109060 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 20:59:05 +0000 MsMamaBear 1109060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every two weeks! She likes it. Not storytime as it's on weekday mornings AND it was too rowdy for me last time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1108953 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 20:13:58 +0000 woodentulip 1108953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We LOVE the library. When we moved across the country last fall, and were staying in a stodgy condo in the middle of the worst place ever, the library was our little slice of heaven!<br /> And my older gal's class even went to the public library today to get everyone signed up for their own library cards and check out a book. So sweet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1108946 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 20:12:20 +0000 immabeetoo 1108946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We go twice a week usually! LO loves it. We try to do storytime if it works with his naps and check out the fish tank. I get two or three books for LO, a new CD to listen to, and a book for me each week! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1108929 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 20:03:21 +0000 Katrocap 1108929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We go weekly. I'm lucky that our library has Saturday baby story times. Also lucky that another library in our area lets patrons check out toys and puzzles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1108853 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 19:23:58 +0000 chopsuey 1108853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: the library is .8 miles from us! can't believe I didn't look into it earlier.. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1108844 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 19:20:03 +0000 banana 1108844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: M will love it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1108827 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 19:10:29 +0000 chopsuey 1108827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need to take mine to the library soon! gonna google and find our local library now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1108822 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 19:09:20 +0000 Andrea 1108822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: doh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-library-is-awesome#post-1108818 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 19:08:01 +0000 banana 1108818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I forget to set up reminders!
