The Joshua Tree Preschool Literacy Lounge has extended its hours and is now open on Saturdays. From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., families with children age 5 and younger now have another opportunity to take advantage of the free literacy lounge program. The program is utilized to provide literacy learning through family projects, story time, and use of technological devices. Upon completion of family projects and goals, children earn rewards. By the end of the program children can earn books, water bottles, and either a backpack full of school supplies, or an art case filled with craft supplies.
