Read & Record at least 20 minutes each day in your Beanstack Account. You can read any book, magazine, or audiobook that interests you! If you read for MORE THAN 20 MINUTES a day, that's awesome, but it will still only count as ONE DAY. SO, if you read for an hour on Tuesday, you get credit for reading and logging on Tuesday, but you can't divide those 60 minutes to count for other days that week. The goal is to read EVERY DAY--for at least 20 minutes.
Read and log at least 20 minutes a day to earn each virtual Reading Badge and associated rewards, including your digital raffle tickets for the Grand Prize Drawings. Visit the Children's Services Desk to pick up your rewards!
