1.5K Shares

If we are being honest with ourselves, it can be difficult for any parent to start the conversation about diversity awareness and anti racism with our children. It’s super important but sometimes we need a little help. So I decided to do a post on diversity activities for kids and I hope it’s useful!

Children learn through play more than anything else at young ages!

Normally we talk about fun kids activities and a variety of parenting tips and hacks on Keep Toddlers Busy, but this is very much the conversation we want to keep having. Racism is a subject that has different meanings to different people, and it can often be difficult to figure out how to effectively communicate with young children. (Here is a great resource for advice on this subject)

Kids learn most about the world from home, so don’t make this a one time activity. For me, it is not just about not being racist, but to also help our kids to be anti-racist. Also be sure to check out my post on kid’s books on racism for some amazing literature!
