1,000 Books before Kindergarten
The Program
-
Read a book, any book, to your child.
-
Keep track of the books you've read, either by keeping track of titles, or just the number you've read.
-
Goal: read 1,000 books before your child enters Kindergarten.
Is this Possible?
-
It is! If you read 1 book a day for a year that is 365 books, so you can finish in the program in 3 years. Read more than 1 book a day and you'll finish faster.
Things to Know
-
Yes, you can read the same book over and over and it will count.
-
Yes, you can count books read by other people to your child, even those at stortyime.
-
We recommed the program for ages Birth - age 4, though if you're an older reader and want to participate, we're ok with that.
-
Books read in any language are welcome!
