ProvoREADS is celebrating the unique milestones and effort required for children to build reading confidence throughout October, according to a report published October 12.
The organization is hosting an October Family Reading Challenge that encourages families to read together by reading aloud, taking turns, or having children tell stories through pictures. To support this initiative, families are encouraged to use conversation starters before, during, and after reading to explore stories and connect.
A ProvoREADS Family Literacy Night is scheduled for Thursday, October 15, 2026, from 5:00–7:30 p.m. at Shoreline Middle School. This Parent University event is for families with children in PreK through 3rd grade and will include literacy activities, practical ideas for reading at home, a complimentary family dinner, and a free book for every child.
