Hi Loretta,
Every year we host a PJ Story Hour. We rent a book character costume and we rotate the families between the library where they hear the principal read a story or two, the gym where the assistant principal reads, and the cafeteria for milk and cookies and photos with the book character.  We used to have parents sign up to be readers and we used every room in the building but have scaled it back since covid.  It is much more manageable with three large rooms and administrators as readers.  We usually also show a video of a staff readers' theater performance during milk and cookies.  It lasts one hour.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to pick your collective brain in regards to what others may have done during family literacy events.  We are thinking of having one (not sure how long it will be), but wanted to see what some of your ideas are or what you may have done with these events in the past that have been successful.  Thanks so much for any ideas/suggestions you send my way!

Respectfully,
