- Minecraft in the Library [3 Updates]

Hi Guys,
Have you all done Minecraft programs in the library recently? I'll be
testing out my first Minecraft day this Saturday. We are using it with the
Xbox 360 edition as well as the iPad Pocket edition. No PC servers. I'm
also going to tie in a Minecraft Craft Day in the near future and have the
kids work with Perler Beads to create Minecraft-themed mini pick axes and
other items/characters.
Thanks!
Mike

I know a couple of our local libraries have had real success doing
minecraft programs. Both encouraged people to bring in their own laptops,
then they started a server they all shared and had different
creative/survival goals. When it comes to crafting, a remarkably easy
option is doing papercraft. It's not always easy, but I find my minecraft
kids are also the LEGO kids - and generally good at constructing models.
It's a matter of running off a few copies, then you have a whole other
craft available.
There's plenty of options, but this page had a nice list of links to print
outs:

I hope you guys have fun!

What is the best resource for me to use to learn about Minecraft? I have not played.
Regarding the use of an X-box, that is just four kids at a time, right? What are the other kids doing while those four play?
Best,
Laini
