Blackstone Library’s 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten program is a fun way to start your child on the path to reading success! The program is free. All children ages birth to five years can participate. Just follow these steps:
Register: Sign up at Blackstone Library and pick up program materials at the library and make library visits a regular part of your routine.
Track Your Reading: Write down each book you read or keep track with the free 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten app.
Every Book Counts: Even if your child wants to hear the same book again and again, you can count it each time. You can also count the books your child hears in Storytime, or reading with others.
Track Each Milestones: Bring your reading Journal to the library to receive a special reward sticker or incentive.
When you reach 1,000 Books: Come celebrate at the library, see your child’s name placed on the 1,000 Book Wall of Fame, and receive a free book.
Keep on Reading: Don’t stop at 1,000! Keep on reading together; there’s more learning ahead!
