Family Literacy Day
Today is Family Literacy Day, a day developed by ABC Life Literacy Canada to encourage families to make time to learn together by reading, playing games or enjoying some other learning activity. This year's theme is "Play for Literacy".
We have some great resources that focus on play-centered learning:

Taking play seriously : children and play in early childhood education--an exciting challenge
