About This Program
The WEIU Kids Reading Club is a FREE reading club for children from age 2 through sixth grade. Every August, we invite children to participate in this wonderful opportunity that will encourage reading and develope fundamental literacy skills to last a lifetime.
Upon joining, the child will receive a membership kit containing a membership card, reading logs, and a few goodies. The child (or parent, if the child cannot write well yet) will record on the reading record each book the child reads or has read to him/her. This is done until all lines on the reading record are filled. Then, mail in the reading record to WEIU-TV and the child will be sent a special prize.
The reading club runs from September through May. In May, each child will be invited to a special reading club member’s party with cake, games, and prizes to celebrate a year of reading success.
Share the love and excitement of reading with your child! We will start taking new enrollment in August 2012. If you have questions, contact Michelle Lassak by phone at 217-581-7912 or via email at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
Tell a Fairy Tale Day - Feb. 26, 2012
This is a day that Fairy Tales are made of (and for). It's Tell a Fairy Tale Day. Today is a great opportunity to read a fairy tale. We all know that everybody loves a good fairy tale.
To qualify as a fairy tale, a story does not have to begin with "Once upon a time.....". But, they usually do. It is a requirement that the story has a happy ending. There's nothing better than a good story that ends with "and they all lived happily ever after".
On Fairy Tale Day, cozy up under a blanket and read a fairy tale book.
