Happy National Book Lover's Day from Achieve!

Reading is a fantastic way to reduce stress, strengthen empathy, and improve focus, vocabulary, and communication. Reading to children helps with both cognitive and social-emotional development.

Whether it be an old favorite or a new title from your to-be-read list, let's celebrate by spending time with a book today!

This week is National Exercise with Your Child Week!

The CDC recommends that children ages 3 to 5 be physically active throughout the day, while children and adolescents ages 6 to 17 get at least 60 minutes of daily physical activity.

National Exercise with Your Child Week encourages adults and children to explore fun ways to be active together. This could look like taking a nature walk, going for a swim or a bike ride, or putting on music and dancing together!

Read more about physical activity recommendations for children here:
