Paint Gin Gin REaD Birthday Celebration
Paint Gin Gin REaD Birthday Celebration
Gin Gin Library would like to invite you to participate in an event to celebrate the Paint Gin Gin REaD crocodile twins’ birthdays during Children’s Week.
Paint Gin Gin REaD is an early literacy community program that encourages the whole community to read, talk, sing, rhyme, draw and move with children from birth, so that they will be ready to read, write and actively engage at school and in community life. The Early Years Network facilitates Paint Gin Gin REaD and meets regularly to discuss ways to promote early literacy.
We will be celebrating the fourth birthdays of our Paint Gin Gin REaD reading mascots, the crocodile twins. Snappy and Toothy hatched from the Reading Egg in 2018 after local children read, sang, rhymed and talked to it to help it grow.
To help celebrate their birthdays you are invited to take part in providing a fun, engaging experience for children and families based on happy, health children and a birthday theme that supports the message of Paint Gin Gin REaD and the Children’s Week theme of ‘All children have the right to a standard of living that supports their wellbeing and healthy development’. The activities are aimed at children aged 0 – 8 years. Lots of reading and lots of fun!

- When: Friday 28 October
