Read books, attend library programs, and help your community this summer by participating in Montgomery County Public Libraries’ Summer Challenge. Attend programs or read books 6 times for a chance to win awesome raffle prizes!
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is a fun way to help prepare your child for Kindergarten. For every book you read (yes, repeats count!), your child can color in a shell on the coloring sheet. In addition, anytime you sing a song, do a fingerplay, read a poem, etc., your child can color in a shell for each learning activity! Participating is easy:
Color in a shell on the coloring sheet for every book read or Early Literacy Moment shared. Tracker sheets can be found here.
You can find examples of the Early Learning Activities here in English and Spanish. Take your log to your local branch to receive your next log and incentive.
