1000 Books Before Kindergarten
What is it?
Prepare your child for kindergarten as you share stories and the joy of reading with our 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten challenge.
If you read just one book per night, you'll have read 365 books in a year. Remember to count the books you hear during library story time and other events!
how does it work?
Visit Timothy C. Hauenstein Reynolds Township Library (TCHRTL) to sign up. Read to your child daily to earn small rewards for reaching 100-book milestones.
Keep track of the books you read together using the paper logs we will provide you when you sign up.
You can also easily track the books you read together through the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten app:
When you reach 1,000 Books, your child will get a certificate and a library book bag filled with books. Take a photo to mark your accomplishment!
