Track Your Reading
Kids (babies through grade 5) are invited to join our summer reading challenge at the Woburn Public Library! (Grades 6-12 can try the Teen Program). This year we’re counting days instead of minutes or pages. It’s simple. Did you read today? Then add it to your log! Your goal is to read at least a little bit every day this summer. We recommend reading at least 15-20 minutes a day. Here’s how it works:
REGISTER. Create a Beanstack account here or sign up at the library to enroll in WPL Children’s Summer Reading Challenge.
If you participated last year, you do not need a new Beanstack account. Just log in and enroll in the current summer challenge. Library staff can reset your Beanstack password if you need help.
You can access your account through the Beanstack app if you prefer. Get it from the App Storeor Google Play. (Be sure to choose “School, Library, or Bookstore” when selecting an organization type and search for Woburn Public Library. Signing up through our site will ensure that Beanstack is free of charge).
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS. Log each day that you read until August 12 and earn virtual badges along the way. Stop by the library throughout the summer to track your progress through prizes.
Older kids will get to pick one bead per day on their reading log.
Babies and Toddlers will pick out one rubber ducky for each week of participation.
BONUS PRIZES. Read at least 40 days during our Summer Reading program to win:
