Summer Reading Programs for Kids!


Summertime is like a dream for a lot of kids...no school, no homework, and sometime no reading.  Help prompt your little ones to keep reading with reading challenges from lots of great places!  Since summer isn't quite here yet, my list is limited, but I will be adding more as end of school approaches!  Click the program title to visit their sites:



Scholastic Summer Challenge - Log in minutes read each day.  Each time you log minutes, you get to enter for a chance to win a Harry Potter gift set worth almost $200!

Summer Break with Book It - Have your kid read 5 books.  Log the books in on the entry form provided.  Mail in entry form for your chance to win a Diary of a Wimpy Kid gift pack including: *Tote Bag *Diary of a Wimpy Kid® Plush *Diary of a Wimpy Kid Books *Diary of a Wimpy Kid DVD *Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules DVD *$20 Visa Gift Card!!  Sweep runs 6/15/12-8/15/12.

Chuck E. Cheese Reading Rewards -  Set your child a goal for two weeks.  Once your child reaches his or her goal, take your log to your local Chuck E Cheese's and turn it in for 10 tokens! 

Your Local Library -  Check out your local library to see if any incentives are offered.  Our local library offers weekly prizes to readers (each reader sets their own goals).  At the end of the summer, they get a free t-shirt if they meet their goal 6 out of 8 weeks!
