Books for Kids Hosts "Read Everyday" at Scholastic! {GIVEAWAY}

I want to share something with you that's very near and dear to my heart. It's a non-profit organization that I've written about in detail on this site (several times, including once when I mentioned it in New York Family Magazine) and one who's mission I wholeheartedly believe in -- Books for Kids.



Books for Kids' mission is to promote literacy among all children, but they place a special emphasis on low-income and at-risk preschool-aged children. Why? Well, because they're the most vulnerable and they are also the ones who need to develop strong literacy skills the most. In order to do this, Books for Kids creates libraries, donates books, and partners with literacy programs to develop the early foundation and skills that young children need to be successful in life.

And in order to create, donate, and build, they need to raise. Money. Lots of it.

And so.

This weekend, Books for Kids will be hosting an event here in NYC that I think will be epic. (And I'm not just saying that.) There will be family activities, storytelling, performances, and lots more on Sunday, May 6th from 1pm -- 4pm at the Scholastic Store in SoHo.

Of course, Aiden and I will be there. And it'll be great to see you there too.

In fact, I want you there so badly that I'm offering one (1) Mommy Delicious reader a family pack of four tickets. How cool is that?! All you have to do is leave a comment saying you want it and a winner will be chosen on Friday, May 4th. But please, leave your contact information in the comments section so that I can get in touch with you if you win. Okay? Okay.

Want an extra entry? Tweet this giveaway (just once!) and leave a separate comment saying that you've done so.

Check the flyer out below and then head here to purchase your tickets. Hope to see you there!

WINNER ANNOUNCED: Congratulations to Aisha G! Look out for an email from me!
