–START CUT—
Step 1. Hold a standard 10-inch piece of dry (uncooked) spaghetti by both ends and try to break it into just two equal-sized pieces.
Step 2. Post your successes and failures to social media.
Step 3. For every piece the spaghetti breaks into, consider donating $5.00 to 1000 Books Before Kindergarten, https://1000booksbeforekindergarten.org/donate/ a national organization with early literacy programs in libraries across the country dedicated to improving childhood literary.
Step 4. Have fun challenging your friends!
Thank you for raising awareness of the importance of early childhood literacy. #1000BooksBeforeKindergarten #SpaghettiChallenge
