How to participate
Read with your child. Studies have shown that reading with your child provides a great opportunity for bonding. Reading together is fun and will create life-long memories for the both of you.
Download reading log sheets to track your progress, or create a journal to make your own log!
If you are able to, make sure to keep a record of "any" book that is being read to your child. This includes teachers and siblings.
