1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
Start Your Little Ones Off Right From The Beginning!
Read a book (any book!) with your newborn, infant, toddler, or preschool-aged little one. The goal is to read 1,000 books before they start kindergarten. Learn more about the program here.
How to Participate
Visit Beanstack to register and track your reading. If you want, you can visit the library to pick up paper tracking logs (or print them yourself) so that your little one can join you in tracking progress. Names of those participating will go up around Miss Rachael's desk.
Each time you reach 100 books, visit the Children’s Room to show off your progress and receive a prize pin and sticker.
At the 500 books milestone, your little one will receive a book along with their pin and sticker.
At the 1,000 books milestone, your little one will receive another book and a certificate to celebrate their achievement!
