Literacy Opportunities
for Family Time
Are you ready to build a stronger reading routine at home?
LOFT is a new program that helps parents and caregivers read with their young children at home.
1 Book a Week: You’ll get one new book each week, with engaging activities to use at home to build your home library. No teaching experience is needed!
Monthly Workshops: Meet in person once a month for 6 months to practice reading strategies, share progress, and get feedback.
Ongoing Support: We are aiming to build a community of reading families. If you have problems or need advice, our educators can help you right away.
Your Feedback Matters: This is a pilot program, which means we’re testing what works best. Your ideas and experiences will help us make PALS even better for more families.
What Makes LOFT Different?
Many parents know reading is important, and many know where to find free books. But finding a book is only the first step. LOFT shows you how to:
Make Reading a Habit: Spend a little time each day reading with your child.
Have Fun: Use games, crafts, and simple questions to keep your child interested.
Stay Encouraged: Connect with other parents and our staff so you never feel alone.
Make Every Book Fun: Learn to make simple activities you can use with any book, even after the program ends.
