What happens early, matters for a lifetime
How you can help your child to talk about race: • Between the ages of birth to three, children are naturally curious about the world around them. Giving your child books and toys that show people from a range of ethnicities positively is so important. • From the age of three, children start to notice if things aren’t shared fairly. They start to show us they don’t like this. • From around the age of five children can talk about unfairness. You can start to have conversations about how unfair things can happen because of the colour of somebody’s skin. • Children of this age love to engage in role play and pretend play. This will help your child to learn about other peoples' ideas, feelings and actions.
