Do you have a preschooler? … We have a special Preschool Party storytime event for you! Join us for a Rainbow Soup storytime – one of the eight new JaxKids Book Club books distributed for free every year to all Duval County students enrolled in registered Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten (VPK) centers. Free giveaways and fun activities!
Grab your friends and don’t miss this special storytime featuring the book Rainbow Soup by Arielle Haughee, join us at any or all of these amazing Preschool Party events!
The JaxKids Book Club is a free club focused on promoting early literacy for children and their families. Each year all Duval County Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten (VPK) students receive a free backpack of 8 new books to start their love of reading and build their home libraries. Backpacks are available at all library branches for any 4-year-old child who didn’t receive one, while supplies last.
This event is sponsored by the Winn-Dixie and Harveys Gives Foundations in support of the JaxKids Book Club and in collaboration with the Library Foundation of Jacksonville and the Jacksonville Public Library.
