21 Day Challenge

It’s never too early to read to your baby. Accelerate their brain development in 15 minutes a day. Reading aloud creates everlasting bonds; builds memories, engagement and brains! Your example demonstrates reading is important, pleasurable and valued. More than one in three children arrive at kindergarten without the skills necessary for lifelong learning. Research shows reading aloud is the single most important thing you can do to help a child prepare for reading and learning. All it takes is 15 minutes a day—anywhere, anytime. Take the 21 Day Challenge and make reading to your child a BIG part of your day.
