"Family Literacy Day is a national awareness initiative created by ABC Life Literacy Canada in 1999 and held annually on January 27 to raise awareness of the importance of reading and engaging in other literacy-related activities as a family."
Taking time to read with your child every day has numerous benefits and it can be fun! The ABC Life Literacy Canada website has a list of 15 minute activities to help you get started.
This year, Robert Munsch is the Honorary Chair of Family Literacy Day. Watch his video for three easy strategies to get your kids engaged while listening to you read.
