IT is all systems go for children starting Term 2 today and hundreds of children will be jumping online to learn.
Logan libraries have just the resources that may help with lessons from home.
A variety of free library resources for all ages is available through Logan City Council Libraries. From the comfort and safety of home, people can explore many free resources through council's vast eLibrary which is available 24/7.
The online resources will especially help parents while children are at home.
Content from the popular early literacy program First 5 Forever will be made available via council's YouTube channel.
Each week, a new story time session will be released.
Maths challenges, coding and video story times will also help keep children of all ages busy and learning in fun ways.
The eLibrary resources include online books, games and magazines which are perfect for all age groups and interests. TV, movie and music services are also streamed.
