Facts
According to a 2000 study by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), a division of the U.S. Department of Education children who were read to frequently are more likely to: count to 20, or higher than those who were not (60%
vs. 44%) write their own names (54% vs. 40%) read or pretend to read (77% vs. 57%) recognized all letters of the alphabet (26% vs. 14%)

Successful?
The children loved it.The parents praised us afterwards.We had fun and felt successful!However…
- just a small dent in the kids who need to be read to
- mothers who came were already “regulars”

Other Programs
Issue isn’t lack of programs or books! Library reading programs (like at Hamden
Public Library, also offered in public libraries in cities around the globe)
New Haven Read to Grow Book Drives Library Cards are usually free!
JUST AN ISSUE OF AWARENESS & GETTING PEOPLE TO THE PROGRAMS!

We learned…
How much a difference reading in early childhood can make on a person’s entire learning and life
There are countless books designed specifically to help engage children and get them excited about learning!
How many children are missing out on such a simple thing that could impact their entire futures.

“Next Time…”
Advertise better so we can get others aside from the library “regulars”
Reach out to families who don’t understand the importance of reading to kids
Find ways to further preach the importance to reading in childhood development and the existence of these programs in libraries and such.
