Born Learning Family Fun Nights

United Way of the Greater Capital Region has partnered with Literacy Volunteers of Rensselaer and the Troy Housing Authority to produce a series of Family Literacy Nights at two Troy Housing Community Centers.

The Family Literacy Nights are free and encourage family interaction through fun activities that are geared towards a certain book. The nights include free dinner, free books for the kids, and a free Born Learning tool kit for parents.

Here are pictures from the January 8, 2009, Dr. Seuss 'Cat in the Hat' Series:
