Last day of school and we escaped before Swine Flu struck our wing. (The fifth graders were not so lucky...)
I wanted to kick off the summer with a quick reminder about area reading programs.
Barnes and Noble's program offers a great selection of books as a reward. Your child can pick one after reading eight.
The program at Arlington Public Library gives the kids a harmonica after they read 15 books (for younger kids) or 10 (for older kids). I'm sure your own local library has a good program as well.
Speaking of libraries, my friend Susan, a children's librarian at Arlington Central, is now blogging for PBS. This week's post features a bunch of tongue twisters -- a fun way to start the summer!

We're all signed up! And we've hashed out the details (no, they may not list the same book for multiple reading programs). Time to read!
