FREE Books for the Kids This Summer

Half Price Books and Barnes & Noble are making sure our kids read this summer!

Half Price Books:
For every week that your child reads at least 15 minutes per day, they can receive a $3 HPB shopping card. Just visit your location to pick up a reading log to keep track. Go HERE to read about that.

and while you are at it

Barnes & Noble:
When your child reads any eight books this summer and completes their summer reading journal from B&N, they can pick one FREE book from the B&N select list (by grade). Read about that and print your summer reading journal HERE.

ALSO:

Seattle Public Library is also doing a reading program with a free paperback and admission to the Burke Museum upon completion - read that HERE.

While they don't give free books out, the Snohomish Public Library has a summer reading program where you keep a journal, and at some locations attend a end of summer completion party with cake and fun. Go HERE to see your local Sno-Isle Library events.

Another Summer Movie Deal - AMC Loews

UPDATE: I've found the movie list!! Here you go:

June 17: Space Chimps
June 24: Kung Fu Panda
July 1: Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa
July 8: Tale of Despereaux
July 15: Horton Hears a Who
July 22: The Spiderwick Chronicles

Okay, so you've already read my post about free movies at Regal Cinemas this summer...well AMC Loews has a $1 movie at 10am every Wednesday through summer. This is a good option if you don't want to see what Regal is playing. Furthermore, all the $1 admissions go to charity.

Read up on that HERE. This kicks off next Wednesday the 17th, but if your kids are like mine and paying for lots of missed school this winter, they will still be in school. =) I haven't found a listing of all the movies that will play this summer, but they are being listed on Fandango.com.
