It's a great idea to use the early years to slowly instill the lessons and teachings of Ramadan.
To help involve kids in Ramadan, we've created the “My Stay At Home Time Capsule 2020” which is an interactive time capsule that offers children a chance to reflect on the current situation and to record their thoughts to be able to look back at this time and remember it in the future.
Parents can help kids bring out their artistic side by guiding and providing little ones with essential tools and tips on how to fill out the pages. Visit the link in our bio to download and print our interactive Time Capsule and don't forget to share their masterpieces with us!

The Barrow Book Partnership (BBP) began in 2016 as a unique, dual approach and joint community partnership to promote and encourage early literacy in Barrow County’s children.
The PCEC "1000 X 5" Children's Book Recycling Project is a community literacy initiative whereby free books are provided to families with young children (birth to 5 years) living on the Saanich Peninsula. It is our hope that all young children will have at least 1000 books read to them by the time they are five years-old.
Homeschooling has many benefits for a child’s education. One of the most obvious is that it allows you, the parent, to tailor a specific education geared towards your child’s particular needs
The webinar reviewed the major findings of the Australian Kids and Family Reading report and explored some of the implications for Primary and Secondary schools. The report was based on a national survey of children and parents and explored their reading attitudes and behaviour around reading books for fun.
Prime Time Family Reading Time is an innovative family reading program designed for low-income families in communities where student reading scores do not meet Nebraska state standards. The six-week program is hosted by local libraries and led by a storyteller and a discussion leader. Since 2005, when the Nebraska Library Commission funded student interns to work with Prime Time, bilingual student assistants have contributed to the programs while also learning about library work. Erika Hamilton, state coordinator of Prime Time, Nebraska Humanities Council Program Officer, will share her experiences in encouraging parents and children to read award-winning illustrated children’s books, to recognize and discuss humanities topics in the stories, and to become active public library users.
This presentation will outline the evolution and evaluation of the Bookworm Club, an Ontario- based, provincial literacy program for children living in out-of-home care (modeled on the UK- based Letterbox Club) in grades one to eight. Participants in the program receive packages containing developmentally appropriate books and related materials, mailed personally to children in their out-of-home placement once a month for six months.
We will provide: 1) an overview of the program evolution and growth; 2) findings from the 2012 pilot program evaluation that involved 131 children and their caregivers and, 3) findings from the 2013 program which grew to include 532 children and their caregivers.
A mixed-methods research design was used in both evaluations involving a quantitative (pre and post-test) and a qualitative component (telephone interviews with caregivers and letters written from participating children). The following areas were explored via questionnaires both before and after participation: child`s self-esteem, child`s motivation for reading, child-caregiver relationship (according to the child), child-caregiver relationship (according to the caregiver), caregiver expectations of the child, and the placement literacy environment.
Key findings relate to the process of growing the Bookworm Club within the province of Ontario, and the findings of the 2012 and 2013 program evaluations which highlight the impact of the program on participating children and their caregivers along with key areas for enhancing the program. For example, the 2012 program pilot evaluation indicated that children's motivation for reading significantly increased during the six months of participation in the Bookworm Club.
This case example from one child welfare community (Ontario, Canada) demonstrates how an evidence-informed practice initiative has been evaluated and grown to full-scale provincial implementation. The continued evaluation of the program and the unique method of obtaining feedback from participating children as part of the evaluation stand out as distinctive features and have implications for the field of child welfare internationally. This presentation will outline the relevance of this literacy program and evaluation process to the child welfare community internationally.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Overview on Edible Vaccine: Pros & Cons with Mechanism
Book Babies
1. What makes Book Babies innovative?
Parents are the key.
The program's success lies with parents. By reading to their children for 15 minutes every day, they expose
their children to a million words a year and nourish their brains for a lifetime of literacy. We provide tools
(books}, information, and support, but the parents are the agents of change. As they engage with their
children every day during the first five years, they put their children on a path to school readiness.
Our approach is personal.
Every year from the baby's birth to age five, Book Harvest staff make home visits to enrolled families;
during these visits, we provide lots of new books to each enrolled Medicaid-eligible family. Each book
delivery visit doubles as a literacy coaching session; at kitchen tables and on living room sofas, Book Babies
team members model reading with the child and discuss early literacy skills with parents.
Our strategy is direct and multifaceted.
We start at birth, laying the foundation for literacy in the earliest days, when brain development is at its
most potent. By the time a child graduates from Book Babies and starts kindergarten, s/he will own at least
120 new books and will have received at least 12 literacy coaching home visits. We supplement the visits
with a robust array of additional supports, including bi-weekly reading and developmental tips via text
message to parents, family gatherings at the Durham County Library, parent book clubs and advisory
groups, and help with applying for a library card and finding high-quality pre-K.
We are committed to finding what works.
Will Book Babies participants enter school ready to learn? Will they have higher emergent literacy skills and
a measurable advantage for future school success? Could this program confer lifelong benefits? We aim to
find out: in 2017, we are partnering with Duke University's Center for Child and Family Policy to evaluate
the longitudinal impact of the Book Babies program on the literacy skills and school readiness of infants
born in 2017 and 2018, assessing their literacy development alongside two control groups over five years.
Our goal is ambitious-and achievable.
Our unique combination of providing home visits and books equips parents to be the change agents for
their children during the critically important preschool years. Book Babies parents, with our support, can
help ensure that their children's school readiness is on par with their higher-income peers. The result? A
lifetime of benefits for all children, as income-based achievement gaps that hold us all back are narrowed
and, finally, closed.
What are parents saying about Book Babies?
"I have been able to see the huge difference in how my kids are interested in reading since before when I
did not have books. My oldest daughter did not like reading, but when my other three kids began to read
different types of books, she became interested in them. For me, this has been a huge, huge help."
"My baby gets access to plenty of books now. I believe as I read to him and as one of your members visits
twice a year, his brain development will be ahead of babies who do not use the same resources."
"Each time, you teach me something different that motivates us more."
"We visit the library more often now; she reads about 3 books a week now!"
"We share as a family and read every day to our children at least 15 minutes a day."
