Read to Me Initiative

Reading to your baby early is not about their understanding of what is being read to them, but about the experience.

Parents who read aloud to their young child enhance the parent-child relationship, prepare their child to learn language, and build early literacy skills.

The LSR7 Parents as Teachers program launched an initiative with the goal of providing the gift of a board book (Read to Me by Judi Moreillon) to each family participating in our program to celebrate the birth or adoption of a new baby.

The program launched in January 2021 and has been funded by generous donations.

If you are a family currently participating in the Parents as Teachers program who has welcomed a new (6 months or younger) baby into your lives through birth or adoption, please reach out to your Parent Educator to request your FREE book! We ask that all requests be made before the baby is 6 months old.
