Put reading first,
with 20 minutes a day spent reading or being read to this summer:

Sign up the whole family for the summer reading program offered by your local public library or school. (sign up to track your reading online).
Visit your local library again and again this summer. Ask your librarian for suggestions of great books to read yourself or to your young child. Once you register you will also have access to exciting, age appropriate reading lists made available by our librarians.
Set a goal of reading 20 minutes every day. For very young children and struggling readers, that can be spread out through the day. Use the online games and track your reading to unlock cool new game levels, activities and more!
Make reading fun all summer long!
