If you haven't seen the
Grow a Reader post on the ALSC blog about early
literacy training days, it is interesting. Even better is this wealth of materials
linked to at the bottom of the post which includes the handouts from the
Early Literacy Day from the Frisco Public Library:

There are some scalable ideas to implement in a small library
or a large one about play, STEM-based learning for young children,
enhancing talk with intentional activities, and storytime activities to
enhance school readiness.
The librarians at Frisco Public Library have also put together a set of three online early literacy classes geared towards parents and caregivers of Babies (Birth to 17 months), Toddlers and 2s (18 months to 2 years), and 3-5s (3 to 5 years). The classes can be taken by anyone, do not require a library card, and may count towards continuing education credit for childcare providers. Find those courses and more information
