Reading Eggs Makes Reading Fun
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of the Reading Eggs.
We are avid readers in this family. It is my firm belief that reading opens up an entirely new world and makes you a much more rounded person. I love reading and so does my husband. We both started reading at young ages and I would pretty much love to always have a book in hand.
Literacy is extremely important to me and I try very hard to encourage my kids to read for an hour each day. However, I am very happy if they just get a half an hour in. What matters most is that they reading something they enjoy and that they are transported to a whole new world which in turn makes them much better students.
Did you know that learning to read can be easy and fun? We struggled with our youngest for years because she had a harder time learning to read than her siblings. We worked with her on a daily basis and really tried hard to make it fun for her. Then we discovered Reading Eggs.
ABOUT READING EGGS
Reading Eggs makes learning to read interesting and engaging for kids, with great online reading games and activities that really work! Reading Eggs has put a lot of effort into making children want to keep using the program without having to be pushed by the parent or teacher. Children love the games, songs, golden eggs, and other rewards, which, along with feeling proud of their reading, really motivate children to keep exploring and learning.
Why do children love Reading Eggs?
- Learning at their own pace
- Humor and play
- Individualized learning
- Rewards
- Sense of achievement
My daughter has been using Reading Eggs for years and is such a great reader now. She started using it in school during Kindergarten. I remember her coming home to tell me that she used a website in class that she really loved.

I haven’t heard of Reading Eggs. Sounds like a great program.
