Prairie Trails Library makes me the envy of some of my Mommy friends at times with all the fabulous…read moreactivities they offer for kids. My friends will call me and ask....what are you doing today? My responses have varied from going to a pajama party to a carnival to seeing live animals to a puppet show to like making lollipop bouquets and spaceships. They ask how much it costs, I say it's free! Can we come? Ohhhh...sorry.... you have to be a member of our library. Yup, they organize some pretty awesome stuff for the kids to do. My kids really love coming here. Currently we are enrolled in the Summer Reading Program and it's incredible to see how excited they get to read. My 7 year old is doing chapter books (required to read 2 a week), my 3 & 1 year olds are doing picture books (required to be read 5 books a week.) They track their books and we go to the library to log them. Don't think they let you just slide by without reading. You have to go into the library, ask for your file and then one of the student volunteer will drill you with questions about the books you read. They clearly can tell who has read and who has not. It's cute to see my 7 and 3 year old work together to make sure they have completed their reading requirements and prep for being asked questions on the books they read. If you successfully read your books for the week, you get entered into the raffle for some cool prizes, a ticket to attend the library summer carnival & earn a prize for that week. The prizes are pretty cool actually, so far they have earned tickets to the Dupage Children's Museum and Roaring Waters Waterpark. Not bad prizes at all! I can go on and on about the children's programs. I can tell you about which ones we have done in the past and which ones they have loved...but the point is, if you live in Burbank and have kids...sign them up for the programs at Prairie Trails Library! They will have a blast.

The staff is completely rude every single time I go there. I truly feel like a complete burden…read moreevery time I walk in there, which is ridiculous. If you forget your library card and need an access code to use the WiFi, forget it. The librarians are also loud, so it doesn't really feel like a library to begin with. I would not recommend this library for any purpose.
