Today is World Read-Aloud Day!
Celebrated on theĀ first Wednesday in February, it’s a global literacy initiative that encourages adults and children from around the world to celebrate the power of reading aloud and share stories with one another.
Here are a few quick ways to celebrate World Read-Aloud Day with your family, friends, and community.
1. Host a virtual read-aloud. Have friends and family join in from all over the world and read aloud from a book of your choosing.
2. Start a virtual book club. Invite friends and family to read the same book together and then come together for a virtual discussion.
3. Visit a local library and read aloud to children. This is a great way to spread the joy of reading and to get children excited about books.
4. Donate books to a school or library. This is a great way to help support literacy and encourage reading.
5. Follow the hashtag #worldreadaloudday on social media and share your favorite books or quotes from books.
6. Make a list of books to read in the next year and start working your way through it.
7. Share your love of reading by recommending books to friends and family.
