Who’s ready for the fall season? Beautiful leaves, s’mores, apples, pumpkins, and so much more! We have our bucket list ready, but we’re also taking on a reading challenge for the season!
Reading challenges are a great way to get kids reading more, to challenge them to read different kinds of books, and to connect with new ideas and experiences. Whether your child already loves reading or you have reluctant readers, this reading challenge is a fun game of finding and reading new books. Doing a challenge like this helps to expand the way a child thinks about reading. It becomes more exciting! If your child finishes the challenge, great! Even if they only read a little more, they’re still broadening their reading horizons. Everyone wins in the end!
If your little one isn’t reading on their own yet, this challenge is still for you. It’s never too early to build your child’s literacy skills. Whether reading independently or with an adult, any time with books makes an immense impact on a child.

If you take the challenge, I’d love to hear how your child enjoys reading different books this fall! For every BINGO my daughter gets, I’m going to give her a little prize. Hmm…maybe a new book?
