For every 100 tasks you and your child complete, you will earn a book of your own to add to an at-home library for your child. Already participating in 1,000 Things Before Kindergarten? Register for summer reading, let us know you are in the 0-4 age group and you can be entered to win the summer reading grand prize for 0-4 year.
