1000×5’s goal is for all children to have books in the home and to have heard 1000 books by age 5. Listening to books as a baby and toddler is one of the most important activities that a child will ever do. Handling books, listening to stories, and enjoying time spent with an important adult builds language, imagination, and many important connections in the developing brain.
