Give the gift of reading this Christmas with Reading Chest
I love this idea and think it would be a fantastic gift for all children to receive at Christmas. Let me introduce you to Reading Chest - a through-the-post book rental service for children that works in a similar way to DVD rental services. It really is just like that! It’s so simple to set up and even easier to manage. Simply pay a monthly membership fee and books tailored to your child’s individual requirements will be delivered direct to your door, complete with a pre-paid return envelope. Gift vouchers start at £25 for a 3 month subscription and come with a book bag, reward chart & stickers and a Christmas story book to keep.
The Reading Chest book rental scheme is not only easy on the wallet (no more forking out for endless books that are only read a couple of times before being left to gather dust on the bookshelf!), it’s also an environmentally-friendly alternative to buying brand new books. It’s a truly fantastic idea, and one that all parents should think about using.
I had the pleasure of trying out ‘Reading Chest’ for my boys. As this service is for 4-9 year olds, they were of perfect age to try it out. Not only did they receive 2 amazing and informative books each, but they also received a stunning Christmas book onto which they could hold on to. The books themselves are not much different to those they bring home from school, but, they were different and my boys love them! They have just really started reading by themselves (using phonics to help them along), and knowing that they can read most of the books themselves is a great achievement for them
It is easy to encourage little minds to discover the joy of reading this Christmas, with a Reading Chest gift voucher. A three month subscription voucher comes complete with a book bag, a reward chart and stickers and a choice of book to keep (A Christmas Journey by Brian Wildsmith – a truly beautiful book!). Children can then look forward to receiving their own deliveries of exciting reading books, specifically tailored to their reading ability, from Reading Chest’s extensive choice of fiction and non-fiction reading scheme books.
The packages you can choose from are:-
• Bronze three month subscription voucher (£25) allows members up to 6 books per month within their chosen reading band.
• Silver three month subscription voucher (£35) allows members up to 12 books per month, and can be from two different reading bands, enabling siblings of different ages to benefit from the scheme.
• Gold three month subscription voucher (£45) allows members an unlimited supply of books that can be selected from up to three different reading bands and can be shared between three siblings.
Members to the Reading Chest get all the other usual Reading Chest benefits including certificates which are available to download from the Reading Chest website and budding literary critics can even see their own book reviews published online!
