Open New Possibilities
Do you dread how much time your children spend on screens?

But as your child’s parent, you have a great opportunity to open the day up to new possibilities and build habits that strengthen your relationship and stimulate your children’s minds in healthy ways. And here, you can access a tool to help you do that.

Sounds Great! But What's RAP?
RAP stands for the Read Aloud Program, our popular and highly sought-after reading program, which has spread the joy of reading aloud to thousands of families. Over the years, we found that parents and children loved their experience at RAP, transformed their habits, and craved more ideas to maintain RAP’s joyful spirit and momentum.
So, we answered their call and developed “Let’s RAP!” Families received this book when RAP ended.
And now, to continue our efforts to remove financial burdens and make more read aloud resources available to anyone, we’re “unlocking” this activity book! Thanks to generous support from First Hawaiian Bank and individual donors, you can access your own, free “Let’s RAP!” activity book, any time, anywhere!
