Handley Regional Library System announces the Family Traditions Fall Reading Challenge running October 31-December 31. In this unique program, kids and teens can earn online badges, stickers, and other prizes based on number of books and minutes read as they share family traditions, learn about other cultures, and create new memories this holiday season. A mix of online story times and virtual events for kids of all ages will accompany the reading program along with “grab-and-go” kits packed with supplies for specific activities available for pick-up. You can sign-up and track reading progress online at www.handleyregional.org/youthfallreading.
“Our Family Traditions Fall Reading Challenge is a great way to connect the love of reading with family,” says John Huddy, Director of Handley Regional Library System. “When kids and adults read together, not only are bonds strengthened, but a lasting love and appreciation for reading is developed along with core skills – and it all starts by opening a book.”
