Spotlight on FLIP: "Brown Bear, Brown Bear"

Have you noticed the black bags with blue or green labels at your local St. Louis County Library branch? Those bags are part of an awesome program called FLIP (Family Literacy Involvement Program). FLIP was developed by the Houston Children’s Museum in partnership with the Houston Public Library. SLCL received a grant to create a limited number of kits for six branches in 2011. The kits proved to be so popular we had to create more! Now FLIP kits are in all 20 SLCL branches. 

FLIP kits contain everything needed for parent and child to have a great shared literacy experience. Each kit contains a book, activity sheet and supplies.






Ages: PRESCHOOL (3-5 years)

This kit contains the classic "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" by Bill Martin Jr. The reading activity talks about rhyming words and colors. After reading the book, your child can create their own bear with the decorating materials provided.
