Do you enjoy reading books with children? If so, The South Sound Reading Foundation has the perfect opportunity for you! As part of our Adopt-a-Daycare Program, you will be paired with a child care facility near your home or office, and you will be a "guest reader" on a regular basis. You'll also give away free books to the children at your location!
This opportunity is with our partner organization, Busy Bees Daycare. You will need to go through our storytime training process before you can become a reader for our organization. You'll also be partnering with one of our staff members for this storytime.
