Book, Activity and Learning Kits
for all agesDiscovery Kits
Discovery kits contain books, and may also contain games, DVDs, stuffed animals, puppets, puzzles and other activities all based around a specific theme. We have five different levels of discovery kits, each geared towards a specific age group:
- Level I = Earliest lap sit readers
- Level II = Ages 2 through 5
- Level III = Ages 6 through 8
- Level IV = 9 and older
- Level V = all ages + teacher / parent resources
Parental supervision is strongly suggested for all kits. These check out for a week at a time, and are located by the children’s nonfiction books.
A complete list of our Discovery Kits is available at the library; a brochure is located on top of the Discovery Kits shelves. Also, a subject search for “Discovery Kits” in our catalog will bring up both the complete list as well as a list divided by age levels.
Discovery Kits come in white and green canvas bags.

Designed for those who don’t like to wait for that next book in the series, Speedy Reader Kits allow a person to check an entire series out at once.

Book Club Kits
Designed to help book club groups find enough books to go around, Book Club Kits include 8-10 copies of the same title, along with several supplemental items to use for the discussion. The discussion leader checks the kit out and is responsible for its contents.

Adult Exploration Kits
Adult Exploration Kits come in red and white, and yellow and white canvas bags.
Most people are familiar with the children’s discovery kits that contain books, games, tools, etc. for youngsters to explore a given topic. There are now similar kits for adults on such subjects as Jane Austen, Ukuleles, Beaches, Birds, the Middle Ages, etc. These are located in the non-fiction area on the shelves between the study carols and tables.
A full list of these new kits can be found in our catalog by searching “Adult Exploration Kits.”
