  • FREE Reading Program for Kids at Historic Newton? Interest?

    FREE Reading Program for Kids at Historic Newton? Interest?

    My name is Max Metz and I am the Manager at the Durant-Kenrick House and Grounds of Historic Newton. I contacted you on Facebook about an idea we have been thinking about at our museums and I wanted to ask if anyone would be interested in a FREE reading weekly activity for kids that we would host.

    Furant-Kenrick House and Grounds of Historic Newton

    So, the idea is to give a free option for families during the week, I was thinking about offering a reading day once a month at the museum where we would pick a book to read to the kids and or watch a short educational film related to the book’s content. It would be an hour long program and free for parents and kids.

    Does this sound like something parents would be interested in? Would there be a better day of the week or time for families?
