Children are our future. Early childhood education is so important. It was recently discovered that children entering kindergarten were lacking basic skills that they should have at that age. We as parents can do so much more to ensure our children get a great start early in life. National Parents as Teachers Day collaborates with Parent-Teacher Organizations and parents to support their child’s education from an early age. Basic skills such as reading and writing form the basis of all education and should be the focus in the early years of your child’s education. This National Parents as Teachers Day, teach your child something new. Join a mentoring program in your city and get involved in educating the kids of America. Post your stories and pictures on social media using #ParentsAsTeachersDay.

We celebrate National Parents as Teachers Day on November 8th every year.

The Parents as Teachers National Center in St Louis, Missouri created this day in 2011. They provide support and spread awareness of early childhood education programs through community events across the country.
