SMART Family Literacy Party - This is what we call our family engagement model. It is an informal party atmosphere using theme and party props. Every event includes reading aloud, fresh veggie and fruit platter, and hands-on educational activities. Each family receives three free books. Volunteers are needed to load and unload supplies, setup hands-on stations, and guide activities. Depending upon the skill and interest of volunteers, they are needed to: manage craft supplies like paint and glue; guide the group in following a recipe, such as smoothies or salad; teach how to do a simple kitchen science demonstration or experiment; pass out door prize tickets; greet families, read a book aloud. Not a wheelchair accessible venue. If you have Spanish speaking skills or musical skills please let Liz Turner know, 409-771-4155 and please wear UTMB badge.
