Person Program Overview:

Every year a new, hands-on program will be developed to follow the CSLP Reading Theme.

Kids should be doing, not watching. All of the kids who attend. It is difficult to develop programs that are affordable, engaging, educational, and fun for students. That, however, is the goal of Puzzle Shift Create!

Because every kid participates in every program, very large groups (larger than 50 kids) may require special considerations and materials.

Programs are between 45 minutes and one hour.

Space Requirements:

In general, any space will work! These programs are designed to be used in any type of space, provided each kid (or team of kids) has some room for themselves. Specifics regarding tables and/or power will be included on the invoice.

Price:

One program: $319

Two programs (same day and nearby): $285 each

Three programs (same day and nearby): $265 each

FAQ

Is mileage included in the fee?

Yes. Mileage is included in the fee.

What does the librarian need to do?

The performer will take care of everything! These programs are made to have reusable materials as much as possible and we will show up with everything we need.

Is the age range flexible?

Years of serving libraries have made it clear that a good program includes kids of all ages. Generally, kids who are 6 and older will be able to participate in the program. If there is a younger person coming, they should have a helper with them.
