Online Play
Players of all ages may track their progress on our Beanstack website or in the Beanstack app. Online players will earn colorful badges in their Beanstack account as they progress through the challenge.
Offline Play
Kids (ages birth through Grade 6)
Kids can play offline by picking up a printed bingo card at their local branch. Each bingo card has 5 rows of 5 spaces. Each space on the card represents:
- 30 minutes of reading

Every time a player completes 5 spaces in a row on their bingo card (vertical, horizontal or diagonal) they will earn a completion prize of their choice and a grand prize raffle entry.
Each printed bingo card can be used up to 5 times, or until all the spaces have been filled. Players must visit their local branch to have their bingo cards marked by a librarian.
