Summer Reading Program for Homeschoolers

Every summer my girls participate in our library’s summer reading program.  They earn weekly prizes and a chance to attend a big performance at the end. 

We will definitely participate again next month, but I also just found out about this new reading program through The Old Schoolhouse. There will be some great prizes and there is a coloring contest right now to jump start your summer fun.  Submissions must be in before June 15th.

You can check it out here.

Fun summer reading!
