I like Loz's idea, it's something I'm going to bear in mind. In Medway they've got a retired and proud group that uses board games. We're hoping to expand this model to our other libraries.
Medway also has a number of puzzles, very popular. I think they're all donated. There are also some other board games, and in one town centre we have some kids who come in to use a chess set. It's quite impressive to see how seriously they take it, sometimes I even forget they're there!
I'm sure that those games will be popular with kids, so why not go for it?
