Get ready for Family Literacy Day on January 27th! This year’s theme is: Make mealtime family learning time. It’s a fantastic opportunity to turn your family meals into a fun learning experience. From following recipes and creating shopping lists to sharing stories around the dinner table, mealtime can be filled with skills-building, connection, and valuable lessons.

Did you know Family Literacy Day has been celebrated every year since 1999? Schools, libraries, literacy organizations, and community groups come together to highlight how important it is for families to engage in literacy-related activities. These shared experiences can have incredible benefits for everyone involved!
