Parenting with children’s books

Words that Cook! Parenting with children's books™ is an award-winning half-hour family literacy program that celebrates the joy of reading, the art of writing, the wonder of storytelling and the magic of wordplay through a combination of interviews and live action spiced up with animated fun. Designed for parents and educators of children ages 0-12, each program features professionals, experts, parents and children modeling and discussing enjoyable and practical techniques for enriching literacy experiences. The goal is to enable parents and educators to see the connection between helping children reach their potential and the necessity of creating opportunities for reading, writing and communicating together.
