Exciting kids learing is back

I think that it is exciting that they are breaking with tradition and hosting a children's library with interactive spaces. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.interactivearchitecture.org/wp-content/imagebank/libre.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.interactivearchitecture.org/interactive-childrens-library-interactive-spaces.html&usg=__QvOgkgJnJJ8TDedMQSZtTQU0G2k=&h=315&w=450&sz=41&hl=en&start=3&sig2=6FdCtkOOYOnj675uaxzlQg&um=1&tbnid=k8mhNRl5Ml4Y2M:&tbnh=89&tbnw=127&ei=sUpvSYaqJZeENabSxKYN&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dinteractive%2Bspaces%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox%26rls%3DFlockInc.:en-US:official%26sa%3DN
It uses both real and virtual space and it helps kids teach themselves without even realising how much they are learning. With kids it is often better to show them something than to merely tell them about it. There is very little in the design now but it will get more and more interactive as it goes on.
Kids are naturally curious so this takes their natural curiosity and makes them able to learn through awe inspiring technologies. People have been using technologies to divert kids for ages but this uses the latest technologies to inform inspire and educate kids.
