🧊 What is the #ReadAndChill Summer Reading Bingo?

#ReadAndChill is a Chattanooga Summer reading program designed for all ages. We encourage participants to complete fun and engaging reading challenges arranged on a Bingo card, come to LearningRx to mark off squares to complete a line of Bingo, and become eligible to win exciting prizes—culminating in a Grand Prize Giveaway! There will be prizes for each line of Bingo from local businesses participating like Carraba’s, Jason’s Deli, East Ridge Chick-Fil-A, Duck Donuts, Jim’N Nick’s BBQ, Ragtag Mercantile, Jeremiah’s Italian Ice in Ooltewah, Imagination SuperTracks . Some Grand Prize contributors will include Zen Nail Spa, Creative Discovery Museum, Community Pie, Nothing Bundt Cakes, The BreakoutRoom, & Chattanooga Football Club!

This initiative encourages kids to pick up a book more often than a phone, tablet, game controller, or TV remote. It’s a fun and meaningful way to avoid the summer learning slide while building lifelong literacy habits.

🌟 Why Join the #ReadAndChill Summer Reading Program?

We want to get kids off the screens and into books this summer.

• Books can increase your knowledge and vocabulary by 50%.
• Books can also make us kinder; research shows that reading about a character’s thoughts and feelings can make you more empathetic.
• Reading a variety of books helps prevent Summer learning loss
• Books can lower your stress by 68% and lengthen your life by two years.
• Books can boost your mood! Studies show that people who read for fun are more likely to feel happy and confident.
• Summer Reading Bingo includes prizes, community support, and educational fun for all ages!

Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or community partner, #ReadAndChill is a great way to keep kids learning over summer break while promoting the importance of literacy across Chattanooga.

Part of the fun means donating and enjoying books out of our Little Free Library in front of our center! Donating books means entries for prizes. Please check out more at News & Media – Little Free Library

Bingo Cards will be coming soon available for download on this website and in person at LearningRx Chattanooga at 2040 Hamilton Place Blvd. Suite 780 Chattanooga, TN 37421 beside Five Below!
