This is pretty great – from DC Public Library:
“Even at an early age, reading to young children is the best thing you can do to put them on a path to success. Your kids pick up new words, have fun while they learn, and develop skills they will need later in school.
DC Public Library wants to make reading with your child fun and easy. That’s why the Library is launching Books from Birth, a program that mails all enrolled kids in D.C. a free book each month from birth until they turn five.
Parents. You must register for this program in order to receive free books for your child. REGISTER HERE.
Registration is now open to parents and caregivers. Books from Birth will officially launch in early February with an announcement from Mayor Bowser and the DC Council. More details on the program will be released at that time.
For more details about the Books From Birth program, please see our Frequently Asked Questions. If you need further assistance, feel free to contact us.“

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
