The Jain Futuristic Academy Preprimary Reading Group

Join the Jain Futuristic Academy Pre-Primary Reading Group!

This group is for parents of children 18months to 6 years old who are interested in promoting a love of reading in their children. We will be discussing a variety of children's books, sharing our thoughts and feelings about them, and offering tips on how to encourage our children to read.

We will meet once a month to discuss a different book. We will also have occasional special events, such as story time at the library or author visits.
