umsami Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Not sure if it's a real curriculum, but my local library just started this program. There's a bunch of good resources on the site. I like this list. http://1000booksbeforekindergarten.org/books-your-child-should-hear-before-kindergarten/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrunchyGirl Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 That's pretty cool! While I'd bet most of us on here are pretty good about reading to our kids, this is such an important campaign for our larger society. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momma2three Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 They do it in my town. I'm a little ashamed to say that I never participated (we have thousands of picture books of our own!), but I have friends who did. They and their kids LOVED it. Every week their kids got to go to the elementary school and take home a bag of pre-chosen books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athomeontheprairie Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Here, the state library put this into production late last year. (I left the library last fall), but it seems like the real push would be this year. Ours of parents under estimate the importance of reading to their children. Unfortunately, those are possibly parents that seldom visit a library... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
