When I google National Literacy Month it comes up as September and March. It says April is National Financial Literacy Month in everything I see.
I would love to celebrate it too on my blog but was just wondering where you found your information that it was National Literacy Month. Thank you and the giveaways look great!
Janna,
Our library passed out information that stated it was National Literacy month and one of my calendar’s at home has it listed as well. From what I read, since it’s not a legal holiday, many regions celebrate it at different times. Our region celebrates it together with National Poetry month.
If I run across anything else I will certainly forward it to you! You should share it on your blog, there’s no wrong time to celebrate literacy!!
