Reading Reward Programs

Book Groups

The best reward for reading, in my opinion, is the enjoyment children get from devouring a good book. If we feed them well, they’ll be sneaking under the covers, flashlight in hand, reading until the wee hours. That said, sometimes children need a little incentive to jumpstart their love of reading. Here are several reward programs to choose from:

Barnes & Noble Summer Reading Program

Barnes and Noble’s Summer Reading Program offers a free book to students in grades 1-6 who read eight books during the summer.

Pizza Hut Book It!

Pizza Hut’s Book It! program runs from October through March for children ages 4-12. Parents can set individual goals for each child. Each student who meets their monthly reading goal is rewarded with a personal pan pizza.

Mensa Excellence in Reading

To encourage the joy of reading, the Mensa Foundation has developed the Mensa for Kids Excellence in Reading Program. Children can earn a commemorative certificate and get an Excellence in Reading t-shirt.
