Another month down. While I’m not wishing time away (I think most of us would always like more of that), I’m hoping that, as we step into this last quarter of 2020, we are stepping closer to a world free of restrictions, lockdowns and Covid-19. I’m sure you are all with me on that.

October begins in a wonderful way with World Smile Day on the first Friday in October — this year, 2 October. The day is a great reminder to spread smiles and share kindness with others. One of the best ways to spread smiles is by having an open heart and being friendly towards others.

Here at readilearn, we have many resources you can use to teach your children friendship skills and encourage them to get along with each other. Resources include:

Busy Bees ABC of friendship

Friendship superpower posters

    I learned something new today! I didn’t know there was a World Smile Day, Oct. 2! We all could benefit from the giving and the receiving! Great activities!

    One of the most valuable skills children learn in school is the ability to work with others and other social skills. These are skills that can be taught, so I’m glad that readilearn addresses that.

      Thank you, Pete. I think the world hinges on getting along with others. I wish your country well in the upcoming election. Things don’t look good from over here.
