Summer Reading Program

FOR BABIES & TODDLERS (AGES 0-3)

For the Babies & Toddlers program, participants ages 0-3 (and their grown-ups) are challenged to read 3 times a week for at least 4 weeks between June 6th-August 6th.

Record the title of each book you, and your baby, read on their reading log, and baby will earn a fun reward once the 20-book goal is reached.

Remember: Only one book per day counts toward your daily reading goal!

FOR CHILDREN (AGES 4-11)

For the Children’s Program, participants ages 4-11 are challenged to track their daily reading in increments of 20 minutes per day, while working toward a goal of 20 days of summer reading.

---

• For each day that participants read, or are read to, for 20 (or more) minutes, they can color in a circle on their paper reading log.
• Participants earn a reward for Day 10 and Day 20 of reading, plus a ticket for a variety of end-of-summer raffle prizes.

Remember: Participants can read more than 20 minutes each day, but only the first 20 minutes count toward the daily reading goal!

FOR TEENS (AGES 12-18)

For the Tween/Teen Program, participants ages 12-18 are challenged to complete a game of book BINGO by reading 5 books that match different themes/categories included on the teen Book BINGO game card.

HOW BOOK BINGO WORKS

• When you sign up for the Tween/Teen program in-person, you’ll receive a paper Book BINGO card like the one below.
• Your goal is to read (or listen to) at least 5 books that match five different categories on your BINGO card, and work your way toward a BINGO (i.e., a filled in line horizontally, vertically, or diagonally).
• As you complete a category/square, check it off and write the title and author in the designated square.
• Once you’ve earned a BINGO, you can bring your Book BINGO card to your community library and be entered to win one of several end-of-summer raffle items.
