Keeping Up With Kids

Thanks to Kim Hennings from New Richmond for sharing this Facebook engagement idea:

“I thought I would let you know about a promotion we ran yesterday for “cyber Monday” on our facebook page.  I saw the idea on Pinterest to wrap up 25 gifts and let your child unwrap one a day until Christmas, so we gathered up 25 kids books that were donations in great shape or freebies from publishers, etc and wrapped them individually.  I posted the giveaway on facebook and we got a HUGE response.  We had just over 600 total library page “likes” yesterday and now we are at almost 700!”
Some of the (MANY) comments on the page:
Encouraging early literacy… what a kind and caring thing to do, especially during the holiday season. Thank You!
A “read-to-me” bonanza, and I have the perfect little people in mind for it!
Awesome! Love our library!
