Happy Family Literacy Day!


Family Literacy Day takes place every year on January 27 and was created by the ABC CANADA Literacy Foundation to encourage families to read and learn together.

Literacy is more than books. There are so many ways to help your son or daughter strengthen their literacy skills -all it takes is practicing for 15 minutes every day. Reading, writing, playing a game, following a recipe or even singing a song all help prepare your child for challenges ahead. It also helps sharpen your skills as an adult reader.

Here is a great resource, The Family Literacy Day activity book and remember to keep reading every night.
