Classroom Book Bags from Books for Little Hands
A children’s librarian visits the child care provider
site initially to present a special story time and demonstrate effective
read aloud techniques. Each classroom book bag contains a set of
20 pre-selected, quality picture books to read aloud and share with
the children. After the first month, program participants make a
quick stop each month at the nearest
San José Public Library branch to exchange the bag for
a fresh set. Hearing books read aloud and having the opportunity
to handle and enjoy the books individually provides children with
the richest experience.
Books for Little Hands provides:
- Monthly exchange of 20 pre-selected children’s books for classroom
use
- Information on literacy related programs and services
