Hey y’all - I suck at naming things.

I’ve got an upcoming program where my library works with a local agricultural museum / historical marker sort of place to do a little storytime for the kids there, with stories about agricultural things (think apples and harvests and cows and whatever) and there are activities (use an apple to stamp designs onto paper, pet the resident chickens, etc) and a craft, and yay community awareness and literacy! There’s going to be a series of these, so it can’t be a specific name for what we’re doing any one time - I need an overarching name for them that can be re-used for branding as this goes on.

I’ve got all my ducks in a row for organization and buy-in and permissions, except now I need a name, and I’ve got a head-cold, and I’m on sudafed like mad, and it’s Friday afternoon, and I’ve got SHIT for ideas.

Help?

Haha! I do like that, but sadly, nope.

I’m liking Growing Readers so far, but please keep them coming. I’ve just got to have something short, catchy, and somewhat topically related. (No sweat, right? 😕😕😕)

How about the similar “The Reading Ranch”? Make a double-R brand (like for cattle) for a logo.

By the way, I think this is a great idea for attracting young readers. Good luck.

Thank you! We’re both trying to make sure that our local county and towns recognize us and have good memories of our offerings so they remember us fondly when tax time comes. 🙂

Seriously tho - they have a great facility over there, and the schools used to have day-trips out there, but they don’t any more, and the museum is trying really hard to remind the general public that they’re there and free and kid-friendly. This is the least the library can do to help a fellow institution out.

I ended up going with Growing Readers, because it was nice and simple, but I’m saving Reading Ranch for something perfect - I’m working with a local goat farm to host a literacy event in the spring with their annual crop of baby goats that need to be petted and cuddled after they’re taken away from their mamas. Kids reading to baby goats. It’s a beautiful thing.
