Every year on this day, January 27, Canada celebrates Family Literacy Day within the family and your community by helping to organize events within our schools, libraries, literary organizations and most importantly, your home.
Literacy is something that can and should be encouraged and practiced right from infant on. In each of our Kindermusik classes, we have a strong focus on literacy and understand how important it is to the development of a child in so many more ways than one. It has been proven to improve their ability to actively listen, build on their vocabulary, develop an appreciation of our language syntax, and create print awareness where they understand that letters come together to form words and ideas.
The ABC Life Literacy Canada site has wonderful ideas to celebrate books and literacy. I encourage you to check it out and find your own fun activity to do together with your children today to promote their own literacy.
