Free Library Apps And Resources

Do you have kids at home with nothing to do? Kids do not have to be bored at home or glued to the Television watching mindless shows or playing videos games all day long. A little TV and video game playing is not bad, but hours and hours will certainly rot the brain. Learning should not just stop because kids are out of school.  As schools move from on-campus learning to distance learning, it is important to give them lots of options for learning. We have compiled a list of some great FREE library Apps and other resources.
