Tales with Tails: Reading with Bailey the Therapy Dog

Looking for a fun and stress-free way to help your child build confidence in reading? Join us for Tales with Tails, a special program designed to encourage young readers by pairing them with a gentle, trained therapy dog!

 

Meet Bailey, Our Furry Reading Buddy!
Bailey, a certified therapy dog, loves listening to stories just as much as children love reading them! Studies have shown that reading to a non-judgmental and friendly audience—like a patient, tail-wagging pup—helps children develop literacy skills, improve fluency, and gain confidence in their reading abilities. Whether your child is a beginning reader or simply wants extra practice, Bailey is the perfect companion.

 

How It Works:

  • Children will have a 15-minute, one-on-one session to read aloud to Bailey in a quiet, cozy space.
  • This program is designed for early and elementary-age readers, but all children are welcome to participate.
  • Reading sessions help reduce stress and make learning fun, allowing kids to progress at their own pace.
