Día! ®

Let the reading celebration begin @ your library®!

April 30 marks a special day in the lives of children. April 30 is El día de los niños/El día de los libros or Children’s Day/Book Day, known as “Día.” It is a day to celebrate children and books! Día reflects a library’s commitment to include and celebrate a variety of cultures year-round. On April 30, around the country, an annual, special celebration of linking children to books, home languages and cultures is held at schools, libraries, museums, churches, parks, and bookstores. But Día also provides a wonderful opportunity for parents to promote the power of books and reading to their own children. Every day of the year can be “Día,” a day for linking all children and books!

By including books in the celebration, families can begin to develop new habits that will instill a love for books and reading in children. Reading daily to your child for at least twenty minutes can become a family tradition. Children will enjoy the experience and grow to love and appreciate books. You can also include food, music, crafts, dance, poetry and games as you nurture the love for books at the heart of the celebration.

Parents, Here are Some Helpful Hints…

• Begin reading together when your child is born. It’s never too early to read to your baby. When you hold your baby close and look at a book together, your baby will enjoy the snuggling and hearing your voice as well as the story. Feeling safe and secure with you while looking at a book builds your baby’s confidence and love of reading.

• Being a toddler is all about action. Everyday experiences are full of opportunities to engage in conversation, sing silly songs and develop language skills. Toddlers need to move, so don’t worry if they act out stories or just skip, romp, or tumble as you read to them. They may be moving, but they are listening.

• Read to your child every day. Make this a warm and loving time when the two of you can cuddle close. Build your child’s vocabulary by talking about interesting words and objects. Involve your child in the reading by asking him/her to point out objects, talk about the pictures, or repeat common words.

• Decide on a regular reading time each day, such as after meals or at bedtime. Choose a comfortable place to sit, such as a rocking chair, away from distractions. Read with expression; vary the pace of your reading. Reread your child’s favorite books whenever asked.

• Be a role model; let your child see you reading, whether it’s a book, newspaper or magazine. Tell stories about your family and culture. Write a family story book together.

让阅读的盛会在您的图书馆®

开始吧!4月30日是孩子们生活中的一个特殊的日子。4月30日是儿童节/书籍日（西班牙语为：El día de los niños/El día de los libros；英语为：Children’s Day/Book Day），是一个被称为“Día”的节日，是人们为孩子和书籍庆祝的日子！Día节日体现了图书馆常年容纳和庆祝多种文化的宗旨。这一天，举国上下都会在学校、图书馆、博物馆、教堂、公园和书店举行年度特别庆祝会，将孩子与书籍、家庭语言和文化联系起来。同时,这一节日还为父母向孩子们宣讲书籍的力量和读书的益处提供了绝佳的机会。一年中的每一天都可以是Día节日，都可以成为每个孩子和书籍连谊的一天。

在庆祝会中加入书籍元素，可以使每个家庭开始建立起新的习惯，逐步向孩子灌输热爱书籍和阅读的意识。每天为您的孩子读上不少于20分钟的书就能让这成为一项家庭传统。孩子们会喜欢上这样的体验，渐渐地爱上并欣赏书籍。在您培养他们对书籍的爱好时，您也可以在庆祝会的核心内容中加入食物、音乐、手工、舞蹈、诗歌和游戏等元素。

家长们，以下是一 些非常有用的提示...

• 在您的孩子降生之后就开始阅读。越早为您的宝贝阅读越好。当您亲昵地抱着您的宝贝并看着书时，您的宝贝会在甜蜜的怀抱里快活地听着您的声音和您讲得故事。与您一起看书能让您的宝贝觉得安全可靠，使他建立起对阅读的自信心和热爱之情。

• 初学走步的幼儿天生好动。日常经历里充满了参与交流谈话、唱有趣的歌曲以及开发语言能力的机会。他们常常需要活动，所以如果他们在您阅读时表演故事中的内容或者只是单纯的嬉戏玩闹，请不要担心。他们可能闲不下来，但是他们在听。

• 每天，当您与孩子亲昵地依偎的时候,您最好给您的孩子读点东西，这样会使阅读变得温馨又充满爱意。通过谈论有趣的词句或对象来扩大孩子的词汇量。阅读时让孩子指出某物、看图说话或重复某些普通词语，使您的孩子参与到阅读中。

• 确定一个日常读书时间，例如饭后或睡前。选个舒适的地方就坐，例如摇椅，远离干扰。生动地阅读，注意调节语速。当您的孩子要求时，可重复为他阅读其特别感兴趣的书籍。

• 做一个阅读模范；当您阅读书报或杂志时，让您的孩子看见您在阅读。给孩子讲述有关您家族和文化的故事。一起写一本家庭故事书。

Parents, Your Library is Your Partner…

Ask the children’s librarian for book, music and movie selections.

Visit the public library regularly, and often.

Register your child for a library card; it’s never too early.

Ask about scheduled story hours for babies, toddlers and preschoolers, after school programs, and summer reading programs. Many libraries offer bilingual story hours.

Borrow library materials to celebrate Día at home!

• Choose a craft book and make a Mexican paper flower from tissue paper or fold paper into origami cranes.

• Select an international cookbook for kids and make mouth-watering recipes from Brazil, India, Spain or Thailand with your child.

• Check out music from around the world and dance in the kitchen while playing instruments made from pots and pans.

• Read award-winning books written by authors about life in other countries or from cultures different from your own.

• Celebrate holidays like Chinese New Year’s, Thanksgiving, Day of the Dead or Kwanzaa. Talk about how these holidays are the same or different from those celebrated in your home.

Suggest ideas to your librarian for celebrating Día.

• Create bilingual book displays.

• Plan a family literacy fair at the library.

• Display posters and banners that celebrate other languages.

• Plan a book parade of titles from around the world.

• Host an international storytelling festival.

• Have an ethnic cooking demonstration.

• Invite multicultural performers and artists to present at the library.

家长们，你们的图书馆就是你们的搭档…

• 请儿童图书馆管理员推荐适合儿童的书籍、音乐和影视选集。

• 定期并经常拜访公共图书馆。

• 为您的孩子办理一张图书馆借阅证；越早越好。

• 询问专为婴幼儿和学龄前儿童设定的讲故事时间、课外活动和暑期阅读计划等日程安排。很多图书馆还有讲双语故事时段。

• 向图书馆借阅资料在家里庆祝Día节日！

° 选一本手工艺书籍，用包装纸做一朵墨西哥纸花或用折纸做一些纸鹤。

° 为孩子选一本国际烹调书，和你的孩子一起烹制让人垂涎欲滴的巴西菜、印度菜、西班牙菜或泰国菜。

° 用锅碗瓢盆作演奏乐器。在厨房里尝试来自世界各地的音乐和舞蹈，

° 阅读作家描写国外或不同文化生活的获奖作品。
