1000 Books Before Kindergarten

The 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program offers priceless rewards through the simple act of reading, fostering early literacy and parent-child bonding. Read any book (even the same one multiple times!) to your newborn, infant, or toddler, aiming to reach 1,000 books before kindergarten. Start anytime – early literacy can begin at birth!

 

How does this program work?

  1. Register through Beanstack to track your child’s reading 
  2. Read with your child and log the books you read, a brag tag will be given for every 100 books
  3. Once your child reads 1000 books they will be given a grand prize at the library desk

 

If you read just one book a day to your child from the time they are born until the time they are 5 you will have read 1825 books!
