How do you celebrate Black History Month with your children? February is an excellent time for children to explore other cultures, but wouldn’t it be great for kids to be interested and excited about Black history, culture, and experiences throughout the year?

Perhaps one of the most important “do’s” is this: Don’t limit your teaching of Black history to the month of February. Instead, check out these learning resources to get started in February and plan how to include Black history in your teaching throughout the academic year.

Use Black History Month as a starting point to introduce children to more books that reflect other cultures and ethnicities but celebrate Black history and cultural diversity all year long.
