A child’s early years determine if that child will become open or fearful of people who are different than they are. Use books to teach your kids about different:
- races
- religions
- countries
- abilities
- family structures
Have a selection of culturally diverse books in your home. Exposing children to different cultures will open up opportunities to discuss differences and highlight similarities, and this will help them become more open minded, accepting and tolerant of others. Take trips to the library or bookstore to regularly refresh your supply and keep it fun!
