Willits Branch Library is taking part in an early reading initiative that aims to have parents read 1,000 books to their children before kindergarten. The initiative guides parents by offering incentives and packets with fun ideas, as well encouraging parents and children to visit the library every 100 books. Children can even get a place on their 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten by finishing the challenge.
This multiyear project encourages parents to read aloud at least 1,000 books with their children before they enter school.
Why participate in this challenge? Research shows that this early reading can help kids enter kindergarten with a firm foundation for reading independently, and jump-start their school performance. Plus, the library makes it fun and easy with a free tote bag and encouragement with incentives along the way. Stop in to Willits Branch Library to check out this fun educational program.
