Today's Reading Badge builds on the tradition of the original 36 reading badges but has become a modern movement for promotion of reading. The Reading Badge of Slovenia Association seeks to spread reading culture, mostly amongst the young (pre-school, primary and secondary schoolchildren). It encourages mostly voluntary and free-time reading, including the reading of fiction books, and integrates all endeavours aimed at better functional literacy of the individual and society. The Association has developed various programmes and actions that promote family reading, including The Cradle of Reading, Grandma and Grandpa Telling and especially the Preschool Reading Badge that stimulates parents to read to pre-school children and to children in the first forms of primary schools. The Reading Badge movement has spread all over Slovenia and also to neighbouring countries with Slovene-speaking children, including the children of Slovene migrant workers.
