As an avid reader, there was nothing more exciting about childhood summers than competing in the reading contest fueled by frequent visits to the library in between visits to the pool. Celebrate summer literacy and learning through play at a party with blocks full of fun activities: music & dance, author events, a craft crawl, play activities, and a family resource fair. Be sure to pick up a few books to keep kids entertained as they start summer vacation. – Kat McNevins
