You might think that kids can't learn about reading and writing from watching television-but that's a myth. Television can actually stimulate literacy, if it's followed up with opportunities for children to read, write, or construct stories of their own. After all, what are children's TV shows if not stories put onto the screen?

Ready to Grow structures opportunities for read-alouds, storytelling activities, and special projects designed to foster children's own creativity. It also uses programming like Between the Lions – a show about a family of lions who run a very special library – to reinforce the connection between television and literacy.
