Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Volunteers will promote young childhood literacy by participating in activities with preschool school and kindergarten age children in local child care centers. The project can include the following components:
• Running a new book drive, so that each child in the classrooms receives a new, age-appropriate book to take home and/or new books are available for use in the classroom
• Reading circles for children, where volunteers will take turns reading books on a particular topic to children in the classroom setting.
• Volunteers interacting with children to do literacy-based crafts, games or activities
• Sharing a healthy snack with children – and talking to the children about the importance of eating healthy to help them be prepared for learning.

New books (if possible), craft supplies, healthy snack items.
