Looking for a low-cost, passive library program that brings your community together? This simple collaborative art activity encourages your library kids and adults to create unique trading cards together. Once finished, you can use these custom, community-made cards as prizes for your reading program milestones or rewards for participating in special library events.

Running a tournament, where participants can play against each other and earn prize cards, can be a great way to make the program more interactive and social. Whether you choose to have scheduled a monthly chill get together or plan a party or large event for the Reading Dragons, a tournament can be a fun way to facilitate interaction.

An activity that shares what the dragons did on their summer vacation and invites the children to share their own vacation stories.
