    Description

    Play with Children

    Join us to read and engage children in play or creative based activities.

    This is a rewarding opportunity to support early childhood development by fostering a love for books, creativity, and social interaction in a fun and nurturing environment.

    Join us as a volunteer and help children discover the joy of storytelling and play!

    No prior experience necessary -- just enthusiasm and a passion for working with children. Should you decide to read with the children, we will provide books for you. You're welcome to bring a favorite book, provided it is appropriate for children ages 3-5.

    Must be 16 years or older to join.
