    10 Ways To Make Summer Reading Even More Fun!

    When families read together over the summer break, learning happens alongside the fun. Here are some cool tips and tricks to check out!

    1. Read a book together, then use sidewalk chalk to draw your favorite moment or characters outside!

    2. Go on a scavenger hunt to find items that your favorite character might need in their story.

    3. Host a scary slumber party! Take turns reading aloud from your favorite scary books, like the “Goosebumps” series.

    4. Let your kids be cooks for a day. Have them find tasty recipes, shop with them to get the ingredients and then help them prepare the meal!

    5. Read a book with neighborhood kids and then create a fun show acting it out for other families.

    6. Get the lyrics from some of your child’s favorite songs! Have them read the lyrics out loud and then you can sing them together.

    7. Read “Alice in Wonderland” together and then throw a tea party. You and your children can dress up as the different characters!

    8. If you take a trip over the summer, buy postcards each day for your kids to write down the best parts of the day. Take them home and make a summer vacation collage!

    9. Invite friends over for a “Come as Your Favorite Character” party. Have each guest name the book their character came from, and why they chose that character.

    10. Help your children write their own stories! Encourage your child to write stories based on their experiences or favorite characters from other books, movies or TV shows.
