If you're anything like me, you're always looking for ways to keep your kids reading over the summer without it feeling like one more thing to check off the list. That's why I was excited to learn about this partnership between Disney On Ice and local libraries across the St. Louis and Metro East area. This summer, kids can earn a FREE Disney On Ice ticket just by reading books through their library's summer reading program.
How It Works
- Visit a participating library and pick up a Disney On Ice Reward Club Card.
- Read five or more books.
- Bring your completed card to the Chaifetz Arena box office.
- Receive one free Disney On Ice ticket with the purchase of one adult ticket.
It's such a simple way to encourage reading while giving kids something exciting to work toward.

Why I Love This Program
As a mom, I love anything that makes reading feel exciting instead of like a chore.
Summer can be long, and while we all have the best intentions of keeping our kids reading, sometimes they need a little extra motivation. Pairing books with a Disney On Ice experience feels like such a fun way to celebrate their hard work.
And honestly, I love that it encourages families to spend time at their local library too.
If your family is already planning a Disney On Ice trip this fall, this is an easy win.
Just be sure to check with your local library for participation details and availability, as supplies may be limited.
