Play to Read

The “Play to Read” program was created by The Iowa Children’s Museum to nurture early literacy skill development in preschool age children. This program provides resources regarding the development of early literacy skills and how these skills can be achieved through play-based literacy kits.

Active play allows children to converse, pretend, and explore their physical environment which benefits all areas of literacy skill development!
