This Week Marks Read Aloud to a Child Week

Every year during the last week of October, Read to Them sponsors Read Aloud to a Child Week, a national event to showcase the importance of reading aloud to children and to encourage families to read together. This year’s event runs from Sunday October 23rd to Saturday October 30th and participating is as easy as selecting a book and reading it aloud! The theme for this year’s event is “OFF ON AN ADVENTURE”!

RideFinders We Read Wednesdays are a perfect fit! The “We Read Wednesdays," an initiative that started as part of our 2020 RideFinders Clean Air Campaign, is designed to encourage youth literacy while providing a resource for educators and parents of children eight years and younger to learn about “green" commuting such as biking and walking, and "green" actions such as recycling. "Green" commuting and "green" activities are planet-friendly actions that teaches us how to be kind to the Earth.
