This program is designed for parents, guardians, and caregivers to develop best practices for helping their young children develop a lifelong love of reading. Tutors will use their expertise in adult literacy to tailor their assistance to the literacy level of each parent/caregiver. Singing, playing and telling stories are ways parents can help young children understand and say new words. Talking together about pictures in storybooks is another great way to teach words, numbers, and letters. You don't need to read to have fun sharing a book!
