Throughout the month of March we had a focus on ‘LGBT Awareness’ linking with linking with the UNCRC Articles 2 ‘All children have these rights no matter what their differences are’ and Article 13 ‘I have the right to find out and share information’.
Some experiences we carried our to support this:
- Dress up – Opportunities for children to express themselves and explore their identity through choosing or designing their own clothing.
- Using paper or photographs of themselves as templates for children to use to dress “themselves” using different art materials.
- Design a rights respecting flag.
- Acts of Kindness – Setting a challenge for children to participate in a small act of kindness.
