Maybe next summer when she's older and will "get it" more. I couldn't deal with the thought of keeping track this summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-reading-programs-for-kids#post-2564252 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 09:35:11 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 2564252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, ours has two different programs. My son is doing the one where he reads 20 minutes (or about 2 picture books) and colors in a picture. After a certain amount of pictures colored he gets a prize. There are 3 levels of that, plus a bonus level of reading 25 hours (150 books) for a free zoo pass. The infant program has three levels with reading but also activities, like "play patty cake" and each completed level earns a prize. For both, the final prize is a book to keep.</p> <p>I loved summer reading as a kid and hope my kids do to! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-reading-programs-for-kids#post-2564237 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 09:18:29 +0000 youboots 2564237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. We did it last summer too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-reading-programs-for-kids#post-2564233 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 09:15:33 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2564233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I signed DD up for ours. I think if we read a certain number of books to her she gets a board book and a certificate at the end of the summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-reading-programs-for-kids#post-2564227 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 09:06:55 +0000 Mamaof2 2564227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our library has one - they read every day and then come in on Saturday or Sunday - they get a raffle ticket (for a prize at the very end) they can put in one of the boxes and each Sunday they get to take home a free book (used) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-reading-programs-for-kids#post-2564214 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 08:47:41 +0000 Bao 2564214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Will your LO be participating in any summer reading programs/challenges? Our library has one for babies up to teens and I'm going to sign the girls up, for something to do. I'm not exactly sure how it works yet but I know they have prizes for each age group. </p>
