Food For Thought: In-n-Out Burger Teams with Public Libraries
6 comments Posted by MamaCta! at 3:16 PM
For me and the Three "lil C's", our weekly trip to the Mentone Branch Library has become one of our new favorite activities. The newly constructed Library/Senior center is on the small side but surprisingly inviting and cozy, especially in the kid's corner where you will find little tables and chairs, a kid's computer, stuffed animals, puppets, puzzles, toys and HUNDREDS of children's books. The books in the adult section are all new and they carry many contemporary titles-no dusty crusty books from the 1800's in this library. And I must add one more comment: The library staff has been very kind, helpful and child friendly. I got no dirty looks when baby C cried or when C1 and C2 got a little carried away while playing with the toys in the kid's corner.
I was pleasantly surprised during our last trip, when I noticed that In-n-Out Burger is sponsoring a literacy promotion called Food For Thought. Children through age 12 can earn a certificate for a free burger for every 5 books they read. The promotion is going on from March 8 to April 19, and kids can earn up to 3 burgers. Now, I don't know about you, but I've got lots of favorite things, two of them being READING, and IN-N-OUT Burgers! Contact your local public library for more details.
