Children aged 6 to 12 can practice reading aloud to a therapy dog at the Burlington Central Branch. Participants can also engage in literacy activities while waiting for their turn.
Reading aloud to a trained pet therapy dog helps children develop literacy skills and confidence in a relaxed setting.
- Children between the ages of 6 and 12 can spend roughly 10 minutes reading to a dog and its handler.
- While waiting for a turn, kids can engage with literacy activities in the program room.
- This program is held in partnership with St. John Ambulance.
- For accessibility accommodations, contact Burlington Public Library at [email protected] or 905.639.3611 ext. 1211 a few days before attending.
