Children’s 2025 Winter Reading Challenge

Children’s 2025 Winter Reading Challenge

                Shorter days and colder weather make winter a great time of the year to snuggle up and read!  This year’s Children’s Winter Reading Challenge begins on January 19th and runs through March 9th.  The purpose of this reading challenge is to incentivize children in kindergarten through sixth grades to independently read books of their choice.  Studies have shown that children who read for pleasure experience many benefits including boosting academic achievement, developing empathy, and improving one’s overall well-being.  Encourage your child to become a lifelong reader and sign them up for our Children's Winter Reading Challenge!
