Library Programmer Calina Sokalski said the children played with a lot of different types of tech gadgets they were able to use with their ipads. These devices included Osmo, Sphero, and Codeapillar. “The children just got familiar with these tech gadgets and they learned more about them.”

The session was part of the overall ‘Crafting Through The Century’ program. “We worked this program in with our theme for 2010, because in 2010 there was a bigger push for technology and more in-depth devices and people becoming reliant on devices so we are just working through that and playing with the devices we have gotten to know.”
