January 27th is Family Literacy Day, an annual initiative that aims to encourage reading and engaging in other literacy-related activities as a family. I’m delighted to be partnering with ABC Life Literacy Canada again to talk about the importance of family literacy. I’m especially excited about this year’s theme, “Celebrate your heritage”, because it truly offers a great opportunity for families to come together and learn something that is of interest to everyone.
I’ll be hosting a virtual event for families across Canada that will include a book reading and demonstration on how to create a clay picture. Families can register for this free event here.
To take part in Family Literacy Day, visit https://abclifeliteracy.ca/all-programs/family-literacy-day/ to find fee learning activities and materials or to find a local event. There is even a downloadable tip sheet – illustrated by me! Let the celebrations begin, happy reading!
