#23 This is the end...

So in summary I did enjoy learning these things once I got into it. I had absolutly no time at work, with the computer server crashing, limited hours I work and christmas activites, etc gettin gin the way. I have felt I have learnt a lot of new technologies and now that I have a heap of new web tools (&passwords!!) that I've logged into - it will be easier to find the time to go into them and do some more exploring.
Some things like YouTube & ITunes, we already use a lot at home - and now there is plenty more to explore!!

I will end with attempting to attach another picture of my new storytelling chair. I heard about this idea at a children's librarians conference years ago and has always been in my mind to start a new year off with it - but then I kept forgetting to get it ready. The other day I found the chair cover at Spotlight and my friend who is a far better sewer than me, found some material to make me pockets at the side to 'house' the books I will read at the session along with my puppets and other props. The deep pockets will keep everything hidden to create the element of surprise for the children! It will also save me wheeling a trolley out!
Next Friday (9th Feb) storytime resumes and will be the time to test it out!

Also, can't resist adding another photo of my daughter - her first day of prep today!!
Thanks!!!
