Looking for some frugal summer fun? Head over to your local library and sign your kiddos up for the summer reading program.
The Summer Reading Program is offered at just about every local library and is definitely one of our favorite frugal activities to do as a family. The library summer reading program allows kids to earn rewards or chances to earn prizes en exchange for reading books. The programs vary from library to library but usually kids just pick the books, fill out the paper and then turn it into the library. Each library has different giveaways and rewards but all are FUN!
Even better, many libraries open this program up to all members of the family from baby to adult. Even before our oldest was able to read, our library allowed my son to earn points for the books that I read to him. Many libraries even offer a teen and adult summer reading program which will also offer drawings, prizes and more. Depending on your library you may be offered weekly reading rewards, chances to win prizes, or even an end of the season party.
