This text-based family engagement curriculum promotes child development from birth to fourth grade. The program is part of the Foundation’s portfolio of efforts supporting children and families in the territory. Each week, parents and caregivers receive three texts (one on Monday, Wednesday and Friday) that consist of fun facts and easy tips on how to promote their child’s development by building on existing family routines – such as pointing out letters on the cereal box at breakfast, counting the number of steps as you walk to the car, or making feeling faces in the mirror after you brush your teeth.
The Ready4K curriculum covers the whole child from birth through 4th grade and is available in English, Spanish, and Arabic. Getting started is easy. Simply text the code CFVI to 70138 to start receiving messages today. By entering your cell phone number you agree to enroll in the program and receive ParentPowered text messages from 70138. While there is no cost for enrolling, data and message rates may apply. You can cancel the text messages at any time by texting STOP to 70138.
