The 2026 Children’s Summer Reading Log

It’s the EIGHTH year of the Summer Reading Log for Children and I could not be more thrilled to share it with you!

This year’s was designed by Audrey Fuller Art and she nailed it – I can’t wait for it to get used.

This year’s has a jungle theme and I’m so pleased with how it turned out!

This year’s reading challenges are all around the jungle and at the top and bottom are leaves where you can track your reading all summer long.

You can decide how you want to track it – you can color in every day that you read at all, every day that you read for a certain amount of time or write in the titles of the books you’re reading. It’s up to you what works best for your family and schedule!

I haven’t even talked about all the cute details to color in, from the adorable animals to the waterfall, there is something new to look at around every corner as you work your way through your very own jungle adventure.

And, as always, the children’s summer reading log for kids is always free! Just pop in your email address below and it’ll come right to your inbox, ready to print off.

 

I love hearing from teachers who print out a copy for all their students to take home as an end-of-year gift or families that pass them out to neighbors to kick off summer or pop them in their local Little Free Library. There are so many ways to use this free reading log for kids!

You can print it at home, but I always think the most fun is doing an engineer print – it’s only a few dollars and having a big version is so fun. I have a whole rundown of how to order an engineer print here. Once you do it, you’ll never go back!

And if you use this reading log for kids this summer and share it on Instagram, please tag me (@everydayreading) and (@audreyfulllerart) so we can see them in action!

P.S. The SEVEN previous Summer Reading Logs are all still available for free here, if you’d like those ones instead!
