Programs That Fit Your Schedule

1000 Books Before Kindergarten

Picture
1000 Books before Kindergarten sounds like a huge amount, right? But if you stop and think about it:
1 bedtime story each night for 3 years
OR
10 books a week for 2 years
OR
20 books a week for just 1 year

Use our Beanstack website or app to log your books - vermillioncpl.beanstack.org  - or pick up a paper log from the library. The program is ongoing and only ends when the child starts kindergarten. Sign your child up today to get their name added to the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten board in the Children's Room. They can earn prizes and certificates the more they read and will be on the Wall of Fame once they reach 1000!

For questions or more information about this or any of the above programs, call Shay at 765-492-3555 or email her by clicking HERE.
