The modest farmhouse where Louis was born, not restored as a museum.
January 4th is Louis Braille's 214th birthday!

Here are three ways you can celebrate...

1. We Need More Braille Champions! To celebrate Louis Braille's 214th
birthday today, we are asking you to be a Literacy Champion and, by
doing so, you will be entered in a drawing for a special gift, donated
by Eone: we are giving away a brand new Bradley Watch. Literacy
Champions are a wonderful group of donors who have committed to giving
monthly to support NBP's mission of braille literacy. Any new (and all
of our existing) Literacy Champions will be automatically entered to
win the watch, and any existing Literacy Champions who increase their
donation in January will receive a second entry! New literacy
champions who donate $214 for the year ($17.83 a month) or more will
also have a second entry! The drawing will take place on February 2nd.

!

2. Introduce your classroom to Louis Braille! Kids love the braille
code, and love learning about the man who invented it. The fun and
informative Louis Braille Classroom Set
(https://www.nbp.org/ic/nbp/LOUIS-SET.html)  includes Six Dots: A
Story of Young Louis Braille, Louis Braille: A Touch of Genius (print
edition), 35 Braille Alphabet Cards, a Unified English Braille Symbols
Wall Chart, and a Louis Braille Poster. Click through to read more
about the included items. (https://www.nbp.org/ic/nbp/LOUIS-SET.html)

3. You can also bring braille into the classroom with this year's "out
of this world" print/braille valentines
(https://www.nbp.org/ic/nbp/VAL23-32.html) !
