Umbrella Day

February: Voices & Identity


Umbrellas have their origins in ancient Egypt and China, where they were first used thousands of years ago to protect people from the sun rather than the rain. Because early umbrellas were made from paper, silk, and wood, they were often expensive and used mainly by kings and wealthy people as a symbol of status and power. When umbrellas became popular in Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries, they slowly turned into a common object for protection from rain and bad weather. Today, umbrellas are used all around the world and show us how a simple invention can combine practical use with culture, fashion, and history.

The word of the day:  waterproof (adjective)/ˈwɔː.tər.pruːf/

Meaning: does not let water pass through

Example: My umbrella is waterproof, so I stay dry in the rain.
