Did you know cooking is full of math and science? When you cook together, you can count, measure, and watch how food changes. Predict how it will look or taste - then check what happens when it's ready!

Family Fun: Cooking together builds skills like numeracy and following instructions. When you cook by the fire, you can teach safety, and share language and stories, too!

Fun Fact: You can tell how hot a fire is by its colour!

Un plaisir familial : cuisiner ensemble permet d'acquérir des compétences telles que le calcul et la capacité à suivre des instructions.

Fait amusant : vous pouvez déterminer la température d'un feu grâce à sa couleur !

Cette image est une photo de trois membres d'une famille préparant un repas à cuisiner à l'extérieur. L'adulte observe attentivement les deux enfants qui coupent des légumes et du poisson pour les cuisiner sur un feu de camp. Il y a d’autres familles derrière eux sur le lac gelé. À l'arrière-plan, on aperçoit des arbres et des cabanes le long du rivage enneigé. En haut de l'image, on peut voir les logos du Prince Albert Literacy Network et une version du logo du Saskatchewan Literacy Network (avec un bol stylisé contenant de la pâte, en l'honneur du livre thème de cette année, « Kohkum's Royal Bannock », devant le livre stylisé du réseau et le globe symbolisant le monde des possibilités offertes par l'alphabétisation). En haut de l'image, on peut lire « Journée de l'alphabétisation familiale 2026 ». En bas de l'image, un bloc de texte indique « 27 janvier », date de la Journée de l'alphabétisation familiale, ainsi que l'image d'ABC alpha pour la vie Canada pour le thème de cette année « Faires du repas un moment d'apprentissage en famille ». En bas, on peut lire la légende « Cuisinez en plein air ! ».
