Family Literacy Activities

In celebration of Family Literacy Day, the Kingston Frontenac Lennox & Addington Early Literacy Committee compiled some great ideas for how to incorporate more literacy activities into your family's day. Although this calendar was designed for Family Literacy Week, it can be used all year round. There are also guides for planning a Family Literacy week for preschool children and another one for school aged children. Start planning ahead for next year!
