Tuesdays 4:00 to 5:00 p.m.
Registered therapy dogs (and
their handlers) are on-site each week for this unique reading
program.
Kids of all ages can sign up to read to a therapy dog in a safe,
secure environment.
This program is ideally suited to early readers and nervous readers
who aren't comfortable reading out loud.
Dogs are excellent listeners, giving young readers a great chance to
practice their reading skills in a positive, judgment-free
environment.
Therapy dog programs have proven benefits, including improved
reading skills and decreased anxiety when reading.
Sign-ups are available at the door on a first-come, first-served
basis.
