Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
It was anticipated that families would come together at the library to learn about pets and pet care in this interactive demonstration.
Measurable Outcome(s)
The group we had for Tori's presentation was very receptive to her presentation. All seemed very curious, and enjoyed the hands-on experience that some of them have never had before. Of our six families, two had never had the experience of touching and caring for reptiles or rabbits. Of our five families, one had not attended any previous summer reading programs at the library.
