“Diversity is the one true thing we all have in common. Celebrate it every day.”
The answer is simple: the earlier, the better.
At the pre-nursery stage, teaching young children about diversity helps them grow into open-minded, compassionate individuals who respect and appreciate the world’s richness.
It is crucial to introduce young children in pre-nursery to the beauty of diversity, holidays, and customs. To help them recognise and value the diversity of our world, it is important to begin early.
Little ones are exposed to a wide variety of fascinating lifestyles when they are taught about other cultures, perhaps through stories or by doing new things.
It enables kids to see that being unique is a good thing rather than a cause for fear.
Students experience pride and a sense of belonging when their own cultures and traditions are respected in the classroom. Additionally, it fosters mutual respect and understanding when kids discover their friends’ customs.
Festivals are ideal for this type of education because they unite people and are joyful.
Consider the joyous atmosphere of Christmas, the generosity shown at Eid, the vibrant hues of Holi, or the beautiful lights of Diwali. Every event has its own unique history and customs.
Children learn about many lifestyles and the universal emotions of joy and unity that we all experience by participating in these festivities, even in small ways.
Whether they are community conventions or family traditions, traditions help kids understand their origins and identity.
Children can feel more linked to their roots when their families share stories about their activities, sing traditional songs, or make easy crafts that are related to their background.
Additionally, it provides individuals with something unique to share with their peers, deepening everyone’s comprehension of one another.
