    Family Fun Facts

    Did you know?

    Children who eat dinner around the table with their families do better in school. Children who take family trips do better in school. Simple, free trips to the park or library are as good as expensive trips away

    from home.

    Children who are read to frequently read earlier and better. Children who see their parents read regularly are likely to read more themselves. Spending 30 minutes a day with your child can help them to achieve better grades in school.

    Children love to spend time with their parents! (Facts from Harvard Family Research Project, wwww.hfrp.org)
