READ!

There are 5 Early Literacy Practices to help your infants, toddlers, and preschoolers build the foundation to learn to read:

* PLAY * READ * WRITE * SING * TALK *

Reading together is the single most important way to help children get ready to read. Shared reading increases vocabulary and general knowledge. It helps children learn how print looks and how books work. Children who enjoy being read to are more likely to want to learn to read themselves.

TALK!

There are 5 Early Literacy Practices to help your infants, toddlers, and preschoolers build the foundation to learn to read:

* PLAY * READ * WRITE * SING * TALK *

Talking with children is one of the best ways to help them learn new words and information. Children learn language and other early literacy skills by listening to their parents and others talk. As children hear spoken language, they learn new words and what they mean. They learn about the world around them and important general knowledge.

Random Acts of Kindness

Small gestures make the most difference on a daily basis. It's easy to get so preoccupied with our own lives that we forget about others, but with just one simple act of kindness, we can change the way someone else's day goes, and we can better ourselves and the world in the process. This challenge is designed for you to take the time to do something for someone else — and hopefully they will pay it forward to the next person!
