Reach Out and Read

Reach out and Read

Desert Pediatrics is proud to be a Reach out and Read site!  We believe childhood literacy plays a vital role in your child’s language development and learning.  Reading with your child is a great bonding activity!  At each well visit, we will help you build your child’s very own library with a new book gifted from 6 months to 5 years.  Our exam room themes are dedicated to all bookworms!
