Kids’ Winter Reading

A Forest of Stories

Join in on the winter reading fun! The Winter Reading forest animals are ready to help you track your reading Dec. 16-Feb. 29. We hope to see you when you visit the Library. Check out these winter programs for family, preschool, elementary school, and middle school.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE:

Read for 40 days to complete this winter’s program. Mark a snowflake on the reading log for each day that you read. You can read for as long as you would like, and the days do not need to be in a row. All kinds of reading and listening count!

After 20 days of reading, you’re halfway done! Bring your log to the Kids’ Library to earn a swag bag and prize entry. Prize pick-up begins January 3.

After 40 days of reading, you’ve completed the program! Come to the Kids’ Library to receive your final prize. Your reading log must be received by February 28 to collect prizes.

Each child is allowed one reading log for the winter. Prizes are available to children, from birth through Grade 8, with an Elmhurst Public Library card or students who attend an Elmhurst school.

Please email kids@elmlib.org to make any prize pick-up accommodations.
