Welcome to January 4th, 2026 on the Family Life Skills Calendar!
Today is Braille Day, a meaningful opportunity for families to explore how people with visual impairments read and write using the Braille system.
Step 1: Learn What Braille Is
Explain that Braille is a system of raised dots read through touch. It helps people who cannot see read books and signs.
Step 2: Explore the Pattern
Look at a simple Braille alphabet chart together. Share how each letter is formed using six dots in different patterns.
Step 3: Decode Simple Letters
Try decoding easy letters like A, B, or C by matching dot patterns. Close your eyes and imagine reading with your fingertips.
Step 4: Build Empathy
Talk about how life might feel without sight and why accessibility and kindness matter.
Step 5: Reflect Together
Share one learning from today and how understanding Braille helps us respect different abilities.
Celebrating World Braille builds awareness!
