Last year on January 24th,Ā 2019,Ā the first International Day of Education was recognized byĀ the United NationsĀ in celebration of the role of education for peace and development, andĀ as a wayĀ toĀ strengthen collective action in achieving global education goals.Ā 

Education is perhaps the best way we know of to eventually end poverty;Ā childrenĀ all over theĀ worldĀ deserveĀ the privilege of learning to read, write, and better their future. AfterĀ all, the children of this world ARE our future!Ā 

Here are some ways you can recognize the day with yourĀ children...Ā 

šŸŒŽ Raise money for a charity that supports international educationĀ ā€“ have a bake sale, set up a lemonade stand, have a yard sale ā€“ find a way to raise donations as a family.Ā 
šŸŒŽ Donate gently usedĀ clothes,Ā shoes,Ā and backpacks to childrenĀ in need.Ā 
šŸŒŽ Study an international country ā€“ particularly a developing nation. The more we know aboutĀ otherĀ peopleā€™s lives that are different from ours, the more we can find ways to help.Ā 
šŸŒŽĀ ResearchĀ ways to support underprivileged children in your own school and community.Ā Ā 
šŸŒŽĀ Encourage your childā€™s teachersĀ and other employees at their school! They work hard to bring education into the lives of kids every single day.Ā Maybe even treat them to something likeĀ a pack ofĀ ourĀ teacher stickers!
Ā 

Download this weekā€™sĀ FREEĀ coloring sheets, they areĀ alsoĀ the perfect way for your childĀ toĀ create something to thank their teachers!Ā 

International Day of Education is yet another reminder of howĀ fortunateĀ our own children are and a chance to talk with them about giving back to those less fortunate. Raising kind, educatedĀ kids WILL change the world!!Ā
