Book excerpt: This DEI Parent Guidebook focuses on the value of older people by providing instructions for parents to teach kids how to connect with them successfully. Whether it's a grandparent, a neighbor, or a family friend, all children can benefit from a positive relationship with an older person. This guidebook provides step-by-step instructions and practical ideas for: - Subtly learning what your child already knows about older people - Explaining the basics of the aging process - Encouraging a relationship with an older person - Suggesting the right questions for kids to ask older people - Cultivating respect for older people at home Please note: New children's books and (many) school curriculums about diversity and inclusion are appearing daily, which is fantastic news! But there's a gap that needs filling. To help kids really absorb the values they're learning, parents (and caregivers) need practical ideas and instructions for incorporating those values into daily life at home.
