Kids Summer Reading Guidelines
- Kids age 5 and under can participate in our PreK Summer Reading Program.
- Kids age 5–12 can join the Kids program.
- Create or sign into your account at winfieldlibrary.readsquared.com or on the ReadSquared app. Parents can link accounts to log their children’s activity.
Sign up now on the app or online so you're ready to start logging your reading starting June 1st.
- Read whatever format you like! Books, audiobooks, graphic novels, and eBooks are acceptable. Storytime participation and Tumblebooks count, too!
- NEW THIS YEAR - Kids can earn points for completing missions. Pre-K/Kids missions include: registering for 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten and Dolly Parton Imagination Library; program attendance; crafting; and planting/growing. Each mission is worth 30 points.
- Every minute a child reads or is read to earns them one point.
- For every 60 points, you can enter for a chance to win a raffle prize.
- When readers reach 300 PreK points (5 hours of reading) or 600 Kids points (10 hours of reading), they may choose two prizes: a grow pot and one other small prize. For their second prize, participants can choose from a bubble wand, Fantastic Farm coloring book, animal kick ball, activity sheet, set of four Good Egg, Bad Seed tattoos, a sticker, or a mini watercolor set, while supplies last. They may also pick up a free Kane County Cougars ticket voucher.
- When PreK readers reach 600 points (10 hours of reading) or Kids readers reach 1200 points (20 hours of reading), they’ll be entered to win a $50 Amazon gift card. They will also choose a book or a prize from the library’s Treasure Chest!
- Even after completing the program, participants may continue to log more reading hours to earn additional points for raffle tickets.
- Remember to redeem your points for raffle tickets! Click the “Raffle” button, then “Get Tickets.” You may redeem 60 points for one raffle ticket. Keep redeeming until you have redeemed all of your points.
- The last day to log activity is Friday, July 31.
- Prize drawings will be held Saturday, August 1. Winners will be notified by
e-mail or phone. Prizes can be picked up at the library.
