The Bookstart Bear Club is an exciting new club for all babies, toddlers and preschool children now running in all libraries in Shropshire. It encourages parents and carers of children under five to share a love of books. The great news is that it is completely free and easy to join.
Children who join the club, are given a membership pack with their own special passport. Every time your child borrows a book or joins in with a library event, they can get their passport stamped. When they have six stamps they are given a certificate. There are ten certificates to collect, all featuring the Bookstart Bear.
The only requirement for doing the Bookstart Bear Club is that the child is a member of the library.
How can my child take part in the Bookstart Bear Club?
- All children under five who are library members can take part in the Bookstart Bear Club

- Every time your child borrows a book they can collect a stamp

If your child is not a member of the library they can join the library and the Bookstart Bear Club at the same time.
