This winter, let the joy of reading bring your family together! The Chattahoochee Valley Libraries’ Winter Reading Challenge is happening now through February 28, 2025, and it’s completely FREE to join. Perfect for readers of all ages, this program offers an easy and fun way to keep the family entertained while modeling healthy reading habits to your little ones.
Participation is simple! Younger children can aim to read (or be read) 30 books, while teens and adults can log 15 hours of reading. Tracking your progress is easy—choose between traditional paper logs or the user-friendly Beanstack app, available for free on Apple and Android devices.
The best part? Reading means prizes! Every family member who completes their goal earns a prize and is entered into the grand prize drawing for a chance to win a VISA gift card.
By participating as a family, you’re showing your kids that reading isn’t just for school—it’s a lifelong joy. Plus, with both digital and paper tracking options, it’s easy to make the challenge work for your busy schedule.
Need inspiration? Cozy up with winter-themed picture books for little ones, thrilling chapter books for older kids, or heartwarming novels for adults. Want to make it extra fun? Set up a cozy reading nook, host a family read-aloud night, or explore audiobooks during long car rides.
Stop by your favorite branch of the Chattahoochee Valley Libraries to pick up paper logs or download them online here. Whether you’re reading snowy adventures, magical stories, or thrilling mysteries, the Winter Reading Challenge is your ticket to family fun and fabulous prizes. Let’s make this winter one to remember—one book at a time!
