Families are used to getting little prizes each week, but I know that doesn't promote intrinsic motivation or a passion for reading or learning in kids. I'm considering moving to weekly take-home craft and science kits along with free books at the beginning, middle, and end of summer for prizes. What works for your summer reading incentives? Has anyone moved from cheap prizes to something else with success? I only have a couple weeks to submit my budget to Friends, so I'm trying to get all my prizes planned now.

Summer is when we try to reach (and hook) the kids for whom reading is not intrinsically rewarding (yet), and that summer we lost a lot of those kids. The little toys, while irritating to parents, are what motivate the reluctant readers. We do give them a book and then a t-shirt when they turn in so many READOs. In the past we have also offered a choice between a small prize or a raffle ticket towards a bigger prize. Those were popular, but I hated seeing the disappointed faces when I didn't draw their name. If you go that route, I highly recommend not doing the drawing in front of a crowd: video tape it and put it on your library's web site, after calling the winners.

Here we have a basket of toys/pencils/lip balm/etc for the weekly check-ins and readers get a raffle ticket for each book read (or 5 read-to-me books). For the end of summer we do the raffle but have quite a few prizes for all ages from gift cards or museum memberships to t-shirts, books, games, outdoor gear, etc... At the end we invite up the kids who didn't get a prize to pick something and also have a book cart of free books for all ages so no one leaves empty handed. The books are from donations - I save up the brand new books throughout the year. And we sometimes buy kid's books from Scholastic Literacy Partners.
