Welcome! From bumps to teens we have it covered.
This is your one-stop site for everything you need to know about living in Luton with children.
World Book Day encourages more children and families to find the fun and enjoyment in reading.
The mission is to promote reading for pleasure, offering every child and young person the opportunity to have a book of their own.
This year, World Book Day takes place on Thursday 6th March and the theme is "Read Your Way"
There are some fantastic free downloadable resources on the World Book Day website for families.
Vouchers are given out via your child's school, nursery, library, some charities and even printed in some children's magazines. They are also printed on McDonald's Happy Meal boxes. Or you can download a digital token from the World Book Day website here.
Your child can exchange their £1 book token for one of the £1 books chosen for this year. The books available aim to cover children of all ages, interests and stages of reading to encourage reading to be fun and enjoyable. The vouchers are redeemable between 13th February and 23rd March 2025 at participating retailers while stocks last.
While stocks last these stores will exchange your child's book token for a copy of one of the £1 books included in the World Book Day 2025 selection.
