vCarrot Wants to Help Your Kids With Their Summer Reading

vCarrot is an interesting looking app that's meant to incentivize kids with their reading. And seeing as school is going to start back up soon and there's a good chance they've been putting it off, now is probably a good time for it to exist. The basic idea is that parents can create a sort of reading assignment for their child, complete with the offer of an e-gift card as a reward. Parents can also set how often reminders for the assignment will pop up, and kids will have to complete a quiz once they're finished to prove that they've read the book (so no cheating).

It won't help you actually find the books they need to read, but vCarrot seems like a clever way to get them to actually read what they're supposed to.
