The free event, co-chaired by Read Ready Covington and Covington Parks and Recreation, is designed for families with children to age 6 and offers an afternoon of fun, learning, and community connection.

Thanks to several community partners, attendees will enjoy a petting zoo, games, food, and prizes and can take home a variety of free educational materials and resources to help learning continue throughout the summer months.

The Early Childhood Fun Fest provides young children with engaging educational experiences that spark the joy of learning and creativity while supporting rich oral language development and social-emotional growth.

The event brings together families, educators, and community partners to create a fun and welcoming environment where children can learn through play and exploration.

Families will also have the opportunity to learn more about enrolling their children in Head Start, preschool, and kindergarten programs.

The event is free, but registration is encouraged. Families can register online at covparks.recdesk.com.

The event is sponsored by Covington Parks and Recreation, Kenton County Public Library, Northern Kentucky Community Action Commission, and Read Ready Covington.
