I would like to know if anybody organizes a reading group for beginners in Downers Grove, Darien, Woodridge areas or nearby. My kindergartener doesn`t have many friends around here, he would love to meet new friends. Or just a playdate nearby would be great. Thanks.

I live in Romeoville and the library offers great programs. My daughter (2 yrs) and I go to storytime once a week and we also attend a preschool activity time there. It's a great time. You should check out your local library to see what they offer.

N.- The Downers Grove library has several story hours planned during the week and in the summer, they also have a reading program.
I have a 5 1/2 yo girl and a 8 month old girl- we would love to meet you on days that we are free.

Hi!
My daughter is beginning to read too. We visit the Downer's Grove library fairly frequently if you would ever like to meet there- either weekend or on a weekday evening. Feel free to contact me via email.

Hello -

My sister is in Downer's Grove/Darien area, and has a 5 1/2 year old girl in kindergarten at Elizabeth Montgomery grade school. She also has a 3 year old boy and a 6 month old boy. She said there is a reading club at her daughter's school. She is open to a play date also.

If you would like, you can give me your phone number and I would pass it on to my sister. She doesn't do email much.

PS - I also live in Downer's Grove (near Ogden) and have (almost) 3 year old twins, girl and boy.

Hi N.:

My son goes to kindergarten in Darien. He would love to make some new friends. We are working on learning to read right now. I don't know how long their attention span would be, but I would be willing to give it a try.
