This week, through stories, puzzles, and activities, we are showcasing some of the ideals that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stood for, including caring for your community, fighting for equality, and—of course—practicing peace. While talking to your kids about civil rights may feel like a daunting task, there are ways to incorporate Dr. King’s core messages into conversations with kids of any age. Help young children understand that every person should be treated with respect and with kindness, and that to truly know someone, you have to spend time with them and talk to them. For older kids, choose a book about Dr. King’s life and legacy. Discuss how Dr. King helped bring about great progress toward equality, and explain that we still have a long way to go. We hope that you and your will join us today—and every day—in working to make the world a better place.
