We believe that now, more than ever, it\u2019s important to celebrate the unique backgrounds and traditions that make up our society\u2014and that teaching kids to appreciate and respect different experiences and perspectives can help this and future generations build a better world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"what-is-diversity-month\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is Diversity Month?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Glad you asked! This celebration was created in 2004 to honor the differences and similarities of people from all walks of life to help us cultivate a deeper understanding of each other. To honor this special month, we rounded up some of our favorite kids\u2019 books to showcase diverse experiences and encourage acceptance, understanding, empathy and inclusion. Celebrate with your kid by exploring four weeks of diversity-themed books and activities.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"the-celebrate-diversity-collection\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Celebrate Diversity Collection&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These books will teach your kids and students how to identify with and have empathy for&nbsp; those who are different from them, respect other points of view\u2014and that exploring other cultures is pretty fun!
