We look forward to seeing you there.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1,000 Books Before Kindergarten<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>What is 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten, you may wonder? Well, it is a reading incentive program that inspires and challenges caregivers to share 1,000 books with their children before they begin school. And why is this important? Research shows that the more books a child is read to by the time they begin school, the greater chance for future success.<\/p>\n<p>Sharing books, conversations, and songs with young children builds language skills, contributes to their healthy development, provides skills to succeed in school, and helps assure that they will learn to love reading.<\/p>\n<p>For every 100 books that are read, they earn a smart stripe that they can show off to their friends, teachers, and librarians! Signing up is easy and it will start your child on the path to becoming a life-long reader.<\/p>\n<p>Continuamos ofreciendo horas de cuentos para beb\u00e9s, ni\u00f1os peque\u00f1os y ni\u00f1os en edad preescolar durante toda la semana.
