Skip the arguments and head over to the Denver Public Library for a host of activities that will increase your teenagers level of comfort with the library, sharpen computer skills, and encourage children of any age to read outside of school. Not only can the children receive prizes for reading books or being read to about art, but they can also create art, in activities such as designing kites, painting murals and constructing robots. Teens can read a book every two weeks qualifying for prizes from Blockbuster Video, United Artists, and Ocean Journey. The program also includes activities in connection with the books such as movie screenings, poster art, and costume contests.
Teens can receive hands-on Internet training and work on projects of their choice.
Library staff members will be able to help kids with computer skills, conducting research and exploring the computer. This program is free and offered on a drop-in basis. Kids can register throughout the summer for any of these programs.
