My Project

Our babies in 3K and 4K love looking at books. They are learning to hold books, turn pages, and track words with their fingers. They are beginning to recognize letters, sounds, and words. They are learning to be lifelong readers! This project includes many different board books and bins so the children can have access to books to explore. The titles include classics like Dr. Suess, animal books, and first-word vocabulary books.

The board books included will endure toddlers' hands and give the children the confidence they need to enjoy reading daily.

The children will have a wide range of different titles to choose from.
