Reading together as a family helps parents bond with their children, and fosters a love for reading and books in children. It's also is a great way for both to learn about nutrition. 2026's #NationalLiteracyDay theme is: Make mealtime family learning time.

As the calendar flips to a new year, we should reflect on the past year - its successes and its challenges. It's a time to take the lessons learned over the past year and apply them to what lies ahead. Wishing everyone a successful, fun, and prosperous 2026.

Today at 11:33 am is the beginning of the Winter Solstice - when half of Earth is tilted the farthest away from the sun. It's the official beginning of winter and the longest night of the year. For many Indigenous cultures, it's a time to honour the natural cycles and patterns.
