Summer Reading Ideas

Summer reading


   Encourage Kids to Read More & S’more!
   Introduce children to the adventure of reading with a “Camp Out at the Library” event. Hold it outside and set up “reading tents” with various types of books. Build “campfires” in barbecue grills and make s’mores for attendees. Hand out Camp Out at the Library Bookmarks, Temporary Tattoos, Stickers and Reading Logs to the kids. Summer reading

    Promote A-MAZE-ing Books Summer reading
   Convert the children’s books section into a reading labyrinth. Use shelves and large poster boards to create a maze, with displays along the way highlighting different genres and popular books in each of them (e.g. Fantasy and Harry Potter books, Horror and Goosebumps books). Invite older children to explore the a-MAZE-ing world of reading by traveling through the maze and picking up books they’d like to check out. Reward participants with Summer Reading Is A-MAZE-ing Educational Activities Books and Summer Reading Is Cool Heat Sensitive Pencils. holiday gifts

   World Wide Reading Summer reading
   Use your school’s Web site as a summer reading forum. Set up an interactive page kids can use to discuss books they’ve read. They can rate a book with 1-5 stars and write a brief review, similar to Amazon.com. Advertise your site with fliers and posters throughout the school before the end of the school year, or with postcards sent home. When students return in the fall, reward those who posted a review with a Reading Rocks! T-shirt or a Hooked on Books Carabiner Key Holder. holiday gifts

   Write On! Summer reading
   Invite a local author to speak to children about fiction writing. Ask the author to help students start a story they can finish at home. Give students Reading Makes Dreams Come Alive Pencils to write their tales. Encourage students to bring their completed stories into the library for a “Young Author” display. Thank them with a Reading Stretches My Mind Silicone Bracelet.

   Make Reading Count Summer reading
   Hold a “Reading Adds Up to Fun!” contest. Award points for every book a child reads–the harder the book, the more points it is worth. Give children a ticket with the point value on it when they return their books. The children will have to track their totals and then redeem the tickets for prizes at your Summer Reading Store. Prizes can include Reading Is Cool Water Bottles, Catch the Summer Reading Wave Flyers, Reading Rocks! Dog Tags and Readers Are Leaders T-shirts.

   Golden Moments Summer reading
   Help kids strike gold at the library. Create a display showing a gold mine and mining carts made of construction paper. Write each participant’s name on a cart. As the children read their required books, their cart can move through the mine to reach a deposit of Golden Books® at the bottom. The first child to “strike gold” can receive a Camp Out at the Library Back Pack with several brand new Golden Books® inside, as well as a “gold” Reading Medallion. Thank each participant with a Pencil, Bookmark and Lollipop from the Reading Rocks! Value Pack.
