Cops 'n' Kids Lehigh Valley

The Cops ‘n’ Kids Children’s Literacy Program's mission is “Connecting Kids and Community through Literacy.”

The Cops ‘n’ Kids Reading Room, in partnership with Northampton Community College, provides a place for children and families to read together, share stories, and select a free book to take home. Police officers, high school and college students, community volunteers, and various community organizations are part of the programs that take place in the Reading Room. Special programs can be planned

for groups (storytelling, puppet shows, or other learning experiences linked to a specific curriculum standard or classroom topic). Teachers and group leaders may select up to five books per visit – for larger quantities, please contact us.

The blustery winds and below-zero temperatures could not dull the spirit of the families who attended our Just Born Cops ‘n’ Kids Valentine story time, featuring the fabulous Taylor Rezac. The event was a “warm” and wonderful event that featured a reading of Julie Danneberg’s Valentine’s Day Jitters—followed by craft making, fun games, and hot cocoa and cookies to celebrate this most joyful of holidays. Our thanks go out to Taylor and Kate and the Liberty and Moravian volunteers—and to all the families who braved the weather to celebrate with us at Cops ‘n’ Kids. Happy Valentine's Day!
