The Reading Connection

The Reading Connection is an activity program for kids ages 4 – 8 years with a parent or parents. Each month, a different letter of the alphabet is featured. We read stories that focus on that letter, develop reading comprehension skills by talking about the story, and then have fun together at six learning stations that feature a craft or activity to go with that letter. In these photos, we played with the letter “F” and made frog puppets, fingerprint fish, and played “Go Fish.”

Registration begins June 15th for

“Dig into Reading,” the 2013 NJ Statewide Summer Reading Program!
All ages are welcome – younger children may be read to by other family members.

How it works:
On or after June 15, register online or at the library.

Children and families read on their own time, wherever they are, whenever they like.

Read whatever you want, even comic books and magazines! Keep track of how much time you spend reading, and then log your reading time and books or other materials online.

When you reach a prize level, choose from the selection that appears on your screen, and then come to the library at your convenience to pick it up.

Everything you need will be revealed on June 15th!

There will be a full calendar of special events for children and families throughout the summer.

Questions? Call the Children’s Reference Desk at the Main Library: 732-873-8700 ext. 112
