Summer reading at the Library in the Forest will officially kick off on June 2. From then on, children can come into the library and register for the program at any time.
Each week, there will be a library scavenger hunt for the weekly “gemstone.” Children get a weekly prize for visiting the library and collecting the gemstones on their treasure maps. At the end of the 10th week, children who have collected the correct three gemstones may enter the magical cave for the final prize.
There will also be an online version of the program, where children can go online and register to win exciting prizes: a Kindle, an InnoTab, Sweet Frog parties for up to 10 friends, a new bike from Bikelink and other fun prizes.
Children will get prize entries according to the number of hours they log reading, not the number of books or pages. This makes it fair for everyone, whether a great reader or a beginner, and you can log your hours from home or when you come to the library. The prize drawings will be held at the finale party on Aug. 8, but you do not have to be present to win.
