Every Day’s a Learning Day

'Every Day's a Learning Day' consists of two books produced by Education Scotland for parents and carers of children aged between birth and 3 years, and 3 to 6 years. The aim is to help parents support their child’s development in the crucial areas of health and wellbeing, literacy and numeracy.

This resource highlights the many excellent learning opportunities that exist within daily experiences such as washing the dishes, preparing a meal or doing the shopping.

The books will be distributed to parents of newborn babies and 3-year-olds through the Scottish Book Trust’s Bookbug scheme.
