Materials
Project R.E.A.D. Together! includes materials for three nutrition book bags in English and two in Spanish. Each book bag contains several activities to give families the opportunity to pick and choose the activites they would like to do. Activities reinforce concepts presented in these books:

Feast for 10 by Cathryn Falwell (English and Spanish) View list of parent-child activities     Growing Vegetable Soup by Lois Ehlert (English and Spanish) View list of parent-child activities     The Beastly Feast by Bruce Goldstone (English) View list of parent-child activities

The Project R.E.A.D. Together! program provides only the supplemental educational materials. Books must be purchased separately from publishers or local bookstores. In addition to the activities associated with each book, other pieces include:

• Program overview and ideas for implementation
• Book bag printing specification sheet
• Sample script to introduce the project to families
• Book bag check-out sheet
• Tips for reading with children
• Linking literacy and nutrition for families with limited incomes
