Gamify reading with Beanstack
These school holidays, transform reading time into a captivating adventure for your child!
With Beanstack, a free app, kids (5-12 years) can track their reading journey and earn cool digital badges for every day of reading logged, plus extra badges for submitting reviews of the books they're reading.
Writing reviews encourages kids to think critically, express their creativity and share their thoughts with others in a safe and supportive environment.
Make a game out of reading and they'll have a blast exploring the world of books!
