On 15 October 2022, KidSTART Singapore, together with SP Group and EtonHouse Community Fund (ECF), launched KidSTART Stories under the Growing Together with KidSTART partnership that equips more than 1,800 families with resources to support parents in the early childhood development of their children through storytelling and reading.
Under this initiative, KidSTART families will be gifted with a mini-library comprising a bookshelf and a set of specially selected age-appropriate books sponsored by SP Group and ECF. The mini-library will facilitate families to create a conducive space at home for children to explore books and enjoy reading sessions with parents.
KidSTART Stories was launched at Keat Hong Community Club, with Ms Sun Xueling, Minister of State, Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministry of Social and Family Development in attendance as Guest of Honour.
