Some things I adjusted based on feedback from patrons, staff & “listening in” v Hide instructions in the room about how to use the “high school locker” lock v Added a red herring related to the “piece of cake” clue v Told them to open the first scroll to get started v Added a kitchen timer to the room v Took all their cell phones and kept them with me in the “magic cell phone basket” v Added another word to the spell to lengthen their time in the room (added about 5 -10 minutes approx. ) v Realized we could charge for this! But of course, we didn’t charge for this. Partnered with Avens (assisted living home for elders in the community) to buy them a book cart for their Book Lovers Program
