Reach and Teach TEENS through their World of CD’s, DVD’s and Video Gaming!
No wonder that some parents feel their children are addicted to gaming. Gaming is a form of “Storytime” and although reading provides a different path to a story, in moderation gaming can be used as a powerful tool in creative role-playing. Likewise, “mindless” arcade style video games frequently involve strategy, reflex dexterity and wacky fun. Check out our growing Digital Departments in both children’s and Young Adult.
Check out GamesThatGive, a new website that generates money for charity when you play their free online games.
- Solitaire
- Bubble Burst (kind of like snood)
- Gems
- Asteroids
- Sudoku
- Word Search
- Memory
- Drull (cool puzzle game)
How does it work? Sponsors advertise on the games, and 70% of every dollar they spend goes to Do Something! Check out GamesThatGive.net and tell some friends about this fun new way to Do Something to help change the world.
