New this year we've combined the Reading Log and BINGO Card into one easy Game Board! Start at the beginning and work your way across the board, checking off items as you finish them. Activities include: visit MML, read a book, color a picture, participate in our Crayon Display, and more! *Some activities require staff initials* Read a book can mean you completed an entire book, or it can mean you read for 20 minutes, depending on your age and the size of your books. |
When Game Boards are returned, you get a certificate, Ohio State Parks Camping Coupon, Ohio State Fair Coupon, Ohio Renaissance Festival coupon, and a free book. Your name is then added to the Bear for our Grand Prizes. Your Game Board must be returned by 7:00 on Friday July 18 in order to receive your free book and be eligible for other prizes. |
Color the picture included in your Registration Packet for the chance to earn an additional prize. Coloring Sheets must be returned by the time we close at 7:00 on July 18. Winners will be announced after judging. |
Everyone who completes a picture will receive a coloring book and a ticket to the Buckeye Imagination Museum Program on July 17. *Note, you must have a ticket to attend. Each ticket admits 1 adult and 1 child. |
