Reading Rainbow

Throwback Thursday

Remember this...




Butterfly in the sky, I can go twice as high
Take a look, it's in a book -
Reading Rainbow.

I can go anywhere!
Friends to know and ways to grow - Reading Rainbow.

I can be anything!
Take a look, it's in a book - Reading Rainbow.

Reading Rainbow, Reading Rainbow, Reading Rainbow, Reading Rainbow!
 

I find myself singing this song to my son often because it has an indelible imprint in my memory.  I scoured PBS searching for Reading Rainbow hoping to give young Sage a glimpse of the excitement that I had about learning to read.  Our beloved LeVar Burton of Reading Rainbow and  his co-founder, Mark Wolfe reinvented themselves, just in time to help us create legacies.  Their company, RRKidz has released the Reading Rainbow App available for free download at iTunes for the iPad.  Targeted to children ages 3-9 years old, the app, hosted by LeVar Burton has 150 interactive books has children travel to themed islands on reading adventures.
