Children form foundational concepts of gender, families, and love before the age of five. As such, parents, teachers, and other caregivers of young children may have questions like:
What everyday influences shape my child’s sense of what it means to be a “boy” or a “girl”?
How do I support a child’s exploration through play of concepts like family and gender?
What strategies can I use to encourage children to feel safe and confident in their bodies, families, classroom and world?
