I am curious to know what the interest would be in having more storytimes for upper elementary age children (8-12). While we have DC and of course our Family Saturdays, I often feel these storytimes and crafts have to be aged more towards the younger ones in the group. Has there been any interest or thought put into some sort of book club or weekly storytime for 4-6th graders? Obviously these children already tend to be plenty busy with school and after school activities, but just something I had been thinking about.
I'm curious to know more about what suggestions parents have made. What are patrons asking for and what types of storytimes has the library tried in the past? Why didn't they continue?
