My daughter has always loved getting lost in a good book, and I love seeing how excited she gets when she finds a new story or finishes one she has really enjoyed. This printable reading log pack was created to make that reading fun feel even more special, giving kids a colourful place to keep track of their books, celebrate their progress and feel proud of all they have read.
Making time for books can be such a great way to build confidence, imagination, and a lifelong love of reading. Whether your child is just starting to enjoy picture books or is working their way through chapter books, this Kids Reading Log Printable Pack gives them a fun way to keep track of every story.
With colourful pages, reading challenges, rewards, bookmarks and more, this pack is designed to make kid’s reading feel exciting and achievable. It can be used at home, during the school year, over summer break, or alongside trips to the local library.
Daily Reading Log Pages
The pack includes two bright daily reading log designs. Children can write down the date, book title, how long they read for and the number of pages or minutes they completed.
This is a simple way to encourage everyday reading and help children notice their reading progress over time. It also works well for setting reading goals, whether they want to read for a certain amount of time each day or finish a number of books each month.
Reading Log Pages
There are also reading log pages with space to record book titles, dates, page numbers and a check mark once each book is completed. These are ideal for big readers who are always picking up a new book, as well as younger kids who may want to track bedtime stories read together.
Children can use these pages throughout the year to create their own personal book chart filled with stories they have enjoyed.
Books Completed Tracker
The Books Completed page gives children a clear and satisfying place to list every finished book. Seeing a growing list can be a lovely confidence boost, especially for young readers who are beginning to read more independently.
It is also useful for parents who want to keep a record of books their child has read, borrowed from the library or received as gifts.
My Book Wishlist
The My Book Wishlist page is perfect for jotting down books children would like to read next. They might spot a good book at school, hear about one from a friend, or find a title while visiting the local library.
This page can help make choosing the next story easier, and it is a handy list to keep in mind for birthdays, holidays or little prizes.
Read Every Day Chart
This fun reading chart includes little book shapes for children to colour in each time they read. It is a simple visual incentive chart that feels manageable and motivating.
Children can colour a book after reading independently, listening to a story, finishing a chapter or spending a set amount of time reading. It is a fun way to build good reading habits without putting too much pressure on younger readers.
30 Day Reading Challenge
The 30 Day Reading Challenge gives children one square to complete for every day they read. It is a great activity for a fresh start, a school holiday challenge or a focused month of reading fun.
You can choose your own reading goal for each day. For little readers, this could be ten minutes of shared reading. Older children might choose a chapter a day or set aside time for their favourite series.
Monthly Reading Challenge
The Monthly Reading Challenge page encourages children to keep reading all year long. Each month has a book shape to colour once they have reached their chosen goal.
This can be used as a themed reading chart for the whole school year, or as a fun summer reading chart to help children keep up their reading habits during summer break.
Book Review Page
The Book Review worksheet gives children the chance to think more deeply about the books they read. They can write the title, author, genre, date started and finished, and give the book a star rating.
There is also space to share their favourite part of the story, what they liked about it and their favourite character. This page is especially nice for older kids, independent work or helping children develop close reading and critical thinking skills in a relaxed, creative way.
Reading Achievement Stickers
The printable sticker page includes colourful reading achievements such as First Book Finished, 5 Books Club, Read to a Pet, Bedtime Reader, 10 Books Champion, Creative Reader, Reading Rockstar and more.
These can be cut out and used as little prizes or added to reading logs, reward charts and certificates. They are a lovely secret weapon for making reading feel special, particularly when children need a little extra encouragement.
Reading Achievement Certificate
Celebrate your child’s hard work with the Reading Achievement Certificate. Add their name, the achievement they are being recognised for, the date and a signature.
This is a lovely way to mark the end of a reading challenge, celebrate a first chapter book, or reward consistent effort. Display it on the fridge, add it to a learning folder or pair it with a special treat.
Printable Bookmarks
The pack includes three colourful bookmarks with positive reading messages, including Super Hero Reader and Just One More Page. Simply print, cut them out and pop one inside your child’s current book.
Bookmarks make reading feel a little more personal, and children may enjoy choosing a different one for different books.
Quiet, I’m Reading Door Hangers
Two fun door hanger designs are included, featuring children reading in superhero-inspired outfits. These are a playful addition to a bedroom door or reading corner, letting everyone know that it is quiet reading time.
They are especially fun for children who love to curl up with books and create their own cosy reading space.

More Reading Resources for Kids
Reading logs are just one of many great ideas for encouraging a love of books. You might also enjoy creating a cosy reading nook, visiting the local library, starting a family book club, trying reading challenges, or choosing a board game based on a favourite story.
For younger kids, shared picture books, silly stories and simple routines can make reading feel comforting and fun. For older children, graphic novels, mystery books, fantasy series and chapter books can help them discover the types of stories they truly enjoy.
