10 Reading Resolutions for Families This Year

Starting a new year is the perfect opportunity to reset habits and make meaningful goals together as a family. One of the most impactful resolutions you can make is to prioritize reading. These simple and realistic reading resolutions for families will help create a reading culture at home, support literacy growth, and make reading feel less like a task and more like a tradition.

1. Set a family reading time each day

2. Let everyone pick a book club book each month

3. Visit the library together weekly

4. Create a cozy reading nook at home

5. Read aloud together, no matter the age

6. Celebrate finished books with small rewards

7. Start a shared family reading journal

8. Reduce screen time in favor of book time

9. Try new genres outside your comfort zone

10. Join a monthly book club like Owl Post Books

Consistency is key. Even 10–15 minutes a day adds up to hours of imagination, vocabulary growth, and bonding. When your child receives a monthly book box from a trusted kids book club, it becomes a tradition they look forward to.

Reading doesn’t need to feel like homework. When families share the joy of stories, reading becomes a foundation for emotional growth, creativity, and connection. This year, build a reading routine that supports your whole family.
