How to Participate:
Register for the program at the Library or ONLINE beginning June 24th. Children will complete activities to earn prizes. Each activity is worth one point and may be repeated as many times as they’d like.

The activities are:

Read a book or magazine for 20 minutes
Write a review or draw a picture about a book
Go on an adventure to somewhere new
Listen to a book: an audiobook CD, Playaway audio, eAudio, Vox book or Wonderbook
Design a bookmark contest (one entry per child)
Attend a Library program
Complete the weekly passive activity
Check out a children’s puzzle or board game
Vote in the Extreme Adventures Tournament
Complete the weekly Spot It! table
Read a board book*
Sing a song with your grownup*
*These are extra activities for babies that are participating.

Please log your activities on the paper activity tracker OR online, not both. And remember, one action may count as multiple activity points. For example, if you attend a storytime where we read a book to you, that counts as 2 points!

Who

Who can participate?

Babies through kids going into grade 6 in September.  Little ones can participate by having someone read to them.

How

Prizes!

For every 5 points a child earns, they are eligible to come into the Library to receive a prize. By earning 25 points, they will complete the program and get their final prize!

Prizes are available for pickup anytime after the program start date of June 24th once a child has reached a 5 point milestone.

Grand raffle prizes will be raffled off on August 9 for children who enter the bookmark contest this summer. To win a raffle, children must be local to Newport County and registered for the Library’s summer reading challenge.
