Birth to Pre-K Summer 2020 (Jun 20 - Sep 07)
This program is designed for those birth-PreK. Once you've earned enough points you'll receive a completion certificate you can print and share!
You can begin logging books as of 6/20/20 even though our first summer materials pick-up isn't until Saturday, 6/27/20. Our program officially ends 8/14/20 and no more prizes will be awarded. Your last day of summer materials pick-up will be 8/22/20. You will have access to your logs and can log up until 9/7/20 for school purposes. Please print logs by this date.
Here is how our Birth-PreK reading program works:
- When registering your child for this program, you will be asked for your child's age. Even if your child has not turned 1 yet, please list the age from 1-5.
- For every day you read during the week (Monday-Friday) and log, you will be rewarded a star sticker for your sticker board (provided in your first summer material pick-up bag). These stickers will be packed using logging statistics from the previous week when pre-packaged each week in your Saturday, Summer Materials Pick-Up Package. (You must fill out the Google Form on westonpubliclibrary.org in order to get these).
- When you read all 5 days of the week, you will also get a Special Sticker.
- Cash in star stickers for 1 chance at the GRAND PRIZE RAFFLE for your age group and cash in special stickers for 2 chances.
- The goal is to read for the entire 40 days (8 weeks-5 days a week) of the program. If you complete the challenge you will get to print a certificate of your achievement and automatically get an extra entry to win our GRAND PRIZE RAFFLE for your age group.
- Please note, you may only be able to pick up Stickers on Summer Material Pick-Up Days which will normally be Saturdays (all pre-packaged by child name), unless otherwise arranged with Miss Alessandra through e-mail apetrino@westonct.gov or unless stated as a different day if we are closed for Holiday weekends.
- You will be able to cash in your stickers only when the library reopens to the public at the end of summer. This date will be announced later.
Important: Please remember to ignore the notifications of prizes from ReadSquared. There is no way for us to select the Monday-Friday awarding option and therefore you will be told if you enter reading on Saturday and Sunday that you have acquired a prize. This is not correct. We will award prizes only Monday-Friday and only Once Per Day. Please do not go by these notices. For questions contact Miss Alessandra at apetrino@westonct.gov.
