Read To A Dog at The Kenilworth Public Library: 4:00pm – 5:00pm on Tuesday, February 27
Ages: For early beginning readers and those who are learning to read
Young, reluctant, or struggling readers are encouraged to register for this program and read aloud for 15 minutes with certified therapy dogs Bubble or Magnolia. Children will learn to associate reading with being with these furry, non-judgmental listeners and begin to view reading in a positive way. Over time, the child’s reading ability and confidence can improve because they are practicing their skills.
Registration is required. Readers may register for a 15-minute visit.
Good Tyme String Band: 10:30am – 11:00am on Wednesday, February 28.
All ages are welcome to attend and enjoy foot tapping knee slapping banjo music
