Our Read to Lead Preschool Camps support families with preschool children (3-5 years old) by providing school readiness activities. Using small group story time with related activities, children engage in a variety of culturally diverse experiences that enhance their literacy, math, and science concepts. Each child receives a free book for continued reading and exploration at home.
Families are encouraged to participate with their children and take part in a short presentation afterward to learn how they can support early learning at home through everyday routines.
The camps are presented by United Way of the Coastal Bend's Success By 6 in partnership with Corpus Christi Public Libraries and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi College of Education and Human Development.
The events are free, though pre-registration is required. Children must be accompanied by a parent/adult.
For questions or more information, please contact Sherry Peterson at 361-882-2529.
