Difficult Discussions

During this difficult time, our little ones might be asking a lot of questions about what’s happening in the news or why they can’t see their friends. A safe way to introduce difficult topics to our little ones is through picture books. Picture books offer a safe space for conversation, vocabulary acquisition, and lasting family memories. Picture books can deliver important messages to children of all ages (adults too!). Below you will find a couple of resources to support discussions around race and inclusivity with our children, along with a link to a list of Black-owned bookstores to support.
