Children find navigating the computer easier with its childsized mouse and touch-screen capabilities. There are more than 60 educational games on the computer in English and Spanish designed to help children with their literacy skills.

The Early Literacy Station was made possible through a grant from the Carroll County Community Foundation with assistance from Indiana Packers Corporation and the Friends of the Delphi Public Library.

“The children are having so much fun playing that they do not even know that they are learning!” Children’s Librarian, Marcia Sledd said.
