About Us
A parent in custody records themselves reading a storybook supplied by SHINE. The book and voice recording is then sent to their child to listen and read along to at home. This program is designed for parents in custody wanting to strengthen the bond with their child and for their child. This program is suitable for infants, toddlers, preschoolers and primary school aged children.
