Hopefully this helps get your kids reading a little more this summer!
Here are a few of the fun ones that we have discovered:
Pizza Hut- Book It!- Kids earn a personal pan pizza each month if you read a certain number of books
Barnes & Noble Summer Reading- Kids can earn a free book (from their selected list) for reading 8 books
Chuck E. Cheese has reward calendars for lots of different purposes (reading, chores, potty training, clean room, manners...) and if they fill out their chart they get 10 free tokens to play games there.
Scholastic Summer Reading Program has you log your minutes of reading on their website and be /entered to win prizes.
Sylvan has a Book Adventure program where kids can take quizzes on books that they read and earn prizes.
Our local library has a reading program that we did and the kids earned a cheeseburger at In-N-Out- see if your library has any similar programs.
Our local water park, Seven Peaks, also does a reader program earning you a free pass. We love this one as well!
Do you know of any other great ones that I have missed?
Great list! There were a few that I had no idea were available so I will be checking into them. Thank you for sharing these resources with everyone.

ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! Thanks for sharing all of these. Unfortunately, many don't include my kids who are upper middle school and high school. Ah well... they still love to read, thankfully.

What a wonderful list! Thank you for the reminder. I forgot about Half Price Books and their reading program. We missed it last year. We usually participate in our local reading program at the library. Alyssa won a bike for her age group last year! It was a lot of fun and she wouldn't stop reading. She was so motivated - it was her first bike ever. Funny you mentioned Book Adventure, Alyssa just took a quiz the other day. She enjoys checking to see whether she was right or not. LOL! She'll take 3-5 quizzes and then give up for the day.
