Fargo Public Library has launched two engaging reading challenges to welcome the New Year. It aims to inspire residents of all ages to develop a love for reading and learning.
2025 Winter Reading Challenge:
Set for January 1 to February 28, the challenge encourages registrants to create personal reading goals and explore many genres. Those interested can sign up and monitor their progress using Beanstack, accessible through the library’s website. When participants have completed their goals, they are qualified to win many prizes, which include gift cards to local stores and special merchandise from the library.
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten:
This popular reading program has engaged parents and caregivers to read 1,000 books with their children before those children begin kindergarten. It will help with building early literacy skills and an affection for reading which will stay forever. Anyone can register for it at Fargo Public Library locations, or even register online on the Beanstack web site.Kids will celebrate each milestone as they reach to complete 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten with the support of a number of rewards that include stickers, books, and diplomas.
Both are free and accessible to the public. To learn more, please visit the Fargo Public Library website or stop by any of our branches.
