Antiracism for Young Kids is a curriculum focused on educating children ages 3-7 about antiracism and supporting parents in raising families who are actively antiracist.
The curriculum is designed for teachers, parents, and caregivers to be able to implement lessons effectively, and focuses on four main themes: Identities and Self Awareness, Awareness and Empathy, Systemic Racism and the Intersections of Oppressions, and Nurturing Active Antiracism for Life.
We enjoyed the varied, bite-sized content that built on itself and creating our own routines to complete most of the content at our own pace. As a white family, we have the goal of building racial literacy from a young age, and this content guided us on that path.

AR4YK does an excellent job organizing a thought-provoking series of activities and readings that were engaging and relevant for our 4 year old daughter. I know that talking every day about racial justice, embracing differences, and confronting our culture’s history and issues have had a positive impact: I have heard from my kiddo’s teachers several incidents where my daughter stood up for a student of color who was getting picked on or asked for help. This fills me with hope. Thank you!
