Family literacy is a term used to describe parents and children - or more broadly - adults and children - learning together. Family literacy is also referred to as intergenerational literacy. The concept underlying the model is that parents and/or guardians are their children's first teachers; the home is the first school and that learning happens from birth and is a lifelong process.
