✓ Yes, when I was a kid there was a small library in my school and usually after lunch break I used to go there and spend half an hour reading academic books.
The phrase 'when I was kid' is missing the indefinite article 'a' before 'kid' because 'kid' is a singular countable noun. It should be 'a kid'.
