This year we may be doing things a little differently but we will do our best to make sure you’re still having fun and getting some reading done! We have gone completely virtual with our summer reading game and our programs. 

                                                To view our programs head to our Events Calendar under the “Events & Programs” tab at the top of the page. 

                                                                                                                   Ages groups:
                                                                                                                            Babies and Tots: Birth to 3 years old
                                                                                                                                     Children’s: 4 to 9 years old
                                                                                                                             Tweens and Teens: 9 years old & up

Here is how it works :
**When registering, register each child separately as if they are making their own account. We are working diligently to fix the registration for the “myself and children” tab. **
Log on to http://bronxvillelibraryny12.readsquared.com/ and register for the corresponding game to your age. Register each child separately as the “myself and children” tab is not activated at this time. You may then start logging your reading hours. There will be two prizes to work up to this year by gaining raffle tickets, the grand prize and the “Prize of the Summer”. Each age group has a different set of rules on how to win one of these prizes. See below: 

Babies and Tots:  A parent or guardian and their little one will gain one point for each hour that you read together (1 hour = 1 point). You can go up to 2 hours  (2 points) a day. For each hour that you read, you will receive a raffle ticket for the grand prize. Once you reach 24 points ( 24 hours) you’ll receive a completion certificate, however you can keep reading after! The library will contact you when it is ready for pick up. “Prize of the Summer”: The registrant with the most hours read will win our Prize of the Summer. Prize is TBD.

Childrens: For each hour that you read gain one point (1 hour = 1 point) . You can go up to 3 hours (3 points) a day. You earn a raffle ticket for every 3 hours  ( 3 points) that you read. Once you reach 48 points (48 hours) you’ll receive a completion certificate. The library will contact you when your certificate is ready for pick up. Prize of the Summer (optional): The participant that logs the most pages will win the prize of the summer: a kindle fire. 

Tween and Teens: For each hour that you read gain one point (1 hour = 1 point) . You can go up to 3 hours (3 points) a day. You earn a raffle ticket for every 3 hours  ( 3 points) that you read. Once you reach 48 points (48 hours) you’ll receive a completion certificate. The library will contact you when your certificate is ready for pick up. Prize of the Summer (optional): The participant that logs the most pages will win the prize of the summer: a kindle fire.
