1) Libraries play an important role in fueling curiosity, creativity, collaboration, and innovation in their communities by providing access to resources, tools, and spaces for learning and play. 2) True innovation comes from combining existing ideas ("the known") with new concepts and approaches ("the unknown"). Libraries support this process by helping people engage with knowledge in new ways. 3) Lifelong learning is supported by lifelong play. Libraries should promote play for both children and adults to encourage experimentation and the development of new ideas.

The project tries to gain knowledge and test what role play could have in the public library. Children’s play has always existed in the public libraries, but more as a secondary activity next to taking out materials or using the computer. Maybe the library should play another role, to be a place that actually promotes play among children and parents and disseminates the culture and knowledge of play.” Aarhus Public Library, Denmark http://www.childrenliteracylab.org/uploads/website/docs/1773-1-Reshaping%20libraries%20in%20Denmark.pdf

- #26 Friedrich Froebel created Kindergarten (1837 first school Kindergarten) 19 th century The name Kindergarten signifies both a garden for children, a location where they can observe and interact with nature, and also a garden of children, where they themselves can grow and develop in freedom from arbitrary political and social imperatives. In 1837, having developed and tested a radically new educational method and philosophy based on structured, activity based learning, Froebel moved to Bad Blankenburg and established his Play and Activity Institute which he renamed in 1840 Kindergarten ." The kindergarten was essentially tri-partite: toys for sedentary creative play (these Froebel called gifts and occupations ) games and dances for healthy activity observing and nurturing plants in a garden for stimulating awareness of the natural world It was a search for metaphysical unity , in which the potential growth to wholeness of the individual child within the natural world would fulfil an harmonious ideal within the mind of God. " Peter Weston in The Froebel Educational Institute : the Origins and History of the College Froebel's philosophy of education were based on the concepts of free self-expression, creativity, social activity, and motor ability and work.

- #28 Froebel developed a specific set of 20 "gifts" and "occupations" - physical objects such as balls, blocks, and sticks - for children to use in the kindergarten. Froebel carefully designed these gifts to help children recognize and appreciate the common patterns and forms found in nature. Froebel's gifts were eventually distributed throughout the world, deeply influencing the development of generations of young children.

- #36 Learning 2.0 is the idea that blossomed from my thoughts and in developing the program I sought to remove the knowledge expert from the front of the class equation and capitalize on the two most important factors of any learning environment. That being have engaged participates ( notice these are not students, they’re participants who are engaged in their own learning) and motivation. Everyone needs some type of motivation to learn. So with the instructor removed from the classroom and the notion that participates would be engaged in charge of their own learning, I came up with some goals and fundamentals for this new program.
