Natalie and I participated in the summer reading program through our library this summer. Our card had 3 levels with 12 squares in each level. To fill in a square we had to read a book, sing a nursery rhyme or song together. I normally try to do both, but this definitely helped me make sure I was consistent with this.
Our library is great at supporting literacy for all ages. They do a baby story time twice a week and Natalie likes to go and sing the songs and watch all the others babies. The librarian who is in charge is also named Natalie which is kind of fun. She has been doing it for 20 + years and is a sweetheart and full of good advice for those raising babies.
She earned two books and a onesie for the grand prize.
Mostly she just wanted to eat the chart.
You like my basket of laundry in the background?
I feel like I always have a basket of laundry to fold these days.
She really likes books and is starting to hold still a little longer while I read to her.
What she really LOVES though is singing songs and nursery rhymes and doing actions with them.

What a great library!
