Grab Your Monthly Gift for Kids at Bundaberg Libraries

Bundaberg Regional Libraries and First 5 Forever are teaming up to bring you a fun and exciting campaign that helps children build their brains through talking, reading, singing, and playing. From December 2024 to March 2025, children aged five and under can collect a different free gift each month from their local library in Bundaberg, Childers, Gin Gin and Woodgate. All you need to do is visit your library with your little one to pick up the gift for the month!

What is the First 5 Forever?

First 5 Forever is all about promoting the importance of early childhood learning. By engaging in activities like singing, reading, and talking with your child, you’re not only creating fun memories but also supporting their brain development. The free gifts are a great way to get involved, but they’re just the beginning! Learn more about First 5 Forever here.

How Does It Work?

There’s no cost, no membership, and no registration needed to take part! Simply visit your local library with your child each month to collect that month’s free gift. The gifts are designed to celebrate the First 5 Forever focus on the joy and benefits of talking, reading, singing, and playing with children under five. Be sure to keep visiting each month to collect all four, and discover what else your local library has to offer!

Why Participate?

Making talking, reading, singing, and playing part of your everyday routine is key to your child’s growth and development. These small activities can make a big impact and give your child a great start in life. Plus, it’s fun for both you and your child!
