Motheread/Fatheread Colorado

"The Motheread curriculum encourages adults to hold or sit close to children as they read great children’s literature aloud and to talk about how the story relates to their lives. Adult educators learn how to teach parents activities that reinforce comprehension, such as acting out the story with simple props, singing, creating visual art, and games. Children and parents discover the vital connection between literature and their life experience, resulting in improved communications, reasoning abilities, critical thinking, social and personal values judgment, and decision-making."
