Claim your free treasure chest from local library.

[kid]

I took DS's red book to the library and he got a goodie bag with 3 reading books, a big A4 notepad and a pack of coloring pens, all for free.

They have different ages gifts but we only got the last one as he is 3.

So if you haven't claimed your one already, get it now!

Wow! Is this all libraries? And for what ages? Sounds great!

I don't know if its all libraries, I'm in Hackney. Its called bookstart and there are 3 packs available.

1- babies 1yr and under
2- toddlers 2yrs
3- 3yr olds.

Some more details here

Seems it is a trial in some areas only at the moment.

my library doesn't do the, but our HV does...altho i keep forgetting to ask

It is available in the Highlands. I received a letter with and invitation to go to the library to collect my dds. I hope she gets another one at 3yrs.

oh pant, just relaised dd3 didnt get her pack at her 8month check last week.

misdee you should be able to get one from the library

my mum works in our local library and she said they can give them out there, although you're supposed to get it at the check

where does it say which libaries are included?

all libraries are included afaik

Hmmm, we were in our the other day and saw nothing.
Might go back tomorrow, don't want to miss afreeie.

i don't think it's something they advertise particularly.
the bookstart scheme is a govt initiative i think, so it should be available everywhere
