I got an email from a disney group I am a member of a couple of weeks ago and it mentioned different things to do with your kids in different cities across the country. There were some good suggestions for Salt Lake, but one of them that I hadn't thought of was the city library downtown. So today we decided to take a trip there.
The childrens section is the whole bottom floor now. This first picture is the ice cave it is whole room with all these little benches that look like ice steps all over the place where the kids can sit and read. This picture was taken at the top in the center of the room. I believe that this must be under the water feature out in front of the building since you can hear water from up above.
This next room was called the attic and it was another room with a bunch of benches that the kids could sit on and read.
There were places all over with little tables and chairs and little couches where the kids could sit down and read.
I was trying to get a picture that showed how big this room was. This is still the kids section and I am standing in the middle of the room looking down just one side. I am not tall enough though or you would have been able to see the rows and rows of shelves.
This is another little cubby area where the kids can read only big enough for one maybe two.
Jacob wasn't sure why they would put a smiley face on the wall.
This picture was taken going up the stairs from the main floor (one above the kids section) to the second floor (young adults). You go through a glass door to get to this staircase and then the same to get out but only these little fabric swags seperate you from the kids section. It made me a little nervous to walk up these stairs.

Taking a break.
We decided to take the glass elevator down to the main level.

If you are in the area and get a chance you should check out this library. We had a lot of fun.
