Cobourg, ON – February 11, 2026 – EarlyON Northumberland is excited to announce the return of its much-loved Family Fun Bingo competition, running now until the end of March.

Created especially for families with young children, Family Fun Bingo turns everyday moments into fun-filled adventures. Families can earn spaces on their Family Fun Bingo card by attending EarlyON Child and Family programming at local centres throughout Northumberland, or by completing fun learning activities together at home. The goal is to have fun, spend quality time together, and maybe even win a prize along the way.

Each family that gets a bingo by completing a line of activities on their card – either vertically, horizontally or diagonally – will receive a small reward when they hand their card in at their local EarlyON Child and Family Centre. They will also be entered into a draw for the chance to win one of two $100 Indigo gift cards. Winners will be chosen at random and contacted by April 17, 2026.

“We are excited to welcome this friendly competition back for a fourth year, just in time for Family Day weekend,” said County Early Years Services Manager Lesley Patterson. “This program is a great way for families to get out and explore their community this winter. We encourage everyone with young children – specifically kids ages 6 and under – to participate in this free, friendly competition for the chance to win. Whether you have participated in EarlyON programming before or not, this is a really great opportunity to try our free drop-in family programs, meet other families with children of a similar age, and making meaningful memories together.”

EarlyON also offers a variety of other free programs throughout the year for families with children ages six and under. They offer a wide range of regular programming at seven local centres across Northumberland, along with partner programs held at additional locations such as community centres, libraries, parks, and other community spaces. These programs give families the chance to connect with one another, explore and play together, and enjoy activities that spark creativity, support learning, and inspire fun. With options for every family, programming is available indoors and outdoors on weekdays, evenings, and weekends, including specialized programs for new and expecting parents.

To participate in Family Fun Bingo, families can download and print a bingo card from the EarlyON Northumberland webpage or pick up a print copy at their local EarlyON Centre. Each square on the card features an activity that can be completed either in person, online, or at home. Families can mark off the corresponding square on their bingo card once they complete an activity.
