Reading for the Youngest Sets now until December 1st

The Buena Park Library District, located at 7150 La Palma Ave., between Knott and Western Avenues, presents two special reading programs for our youngest readers, "Read to Your Baby" and "Read to Me, A to Z." Both started October 20th, and will continue through December 1st for newborns through 3 years old and those as-yet-to-read “non-readers” ages 3 to 6 years old. Parents and caregivers play a vital role in both programs! All you have to do is come into the Children’s Area, pick up a reading log for the program you and your child would like to participate in, and off you go! The “Read to Your Baby” program suggests reading 20 titles from the library. The “Read to Me, A to Z” is set up for parent and child to read 26 picture books from the library corresponding to the author’s last name. Incentives for both reading programs are available in a decorative treasure chest for program finishers that are age appropriate.

The library’s hours are Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Friday and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Please call the Children’s Area for more details at 714.826.4100 x126 or visit our web page for a calendar of more children’s events at www.buenaparklibrary.org.
