As parents, it's important to teach our children about diversity and inclusivity from an early age. But how do we start a conversation about these topics with our kids in a way that is both fun and meaningful? At Lottie Dolls, we believe that play is a powerful tool for teaching children about diversity and sparking meaningful conversations.

First, let's talk about why it is important to teach children about diversity. Not only does it help to promote understanding and acceptance of people who are different from themselves, but it also helps to prepare them for a diverse and inclusive world.

Here are some fun ways to spark a meaningful conversation about diversity with your child:

1. Play with diverse dolls - Our Lottie Dolls come in all shapes, sizes, and skin tones, providing children with a diverse group of friends to play with.

2. Read diverse books - Reading books that feature diverse characters and cultures can help to expose children to different perspectives and experiences.

3. Volunteer together - Find a local organization that promotes diversity and volunteer together. This can be at a school, community center, or a cultural festival. This not only helps your child understand the importance of diversity but also the importance of giving back to the community.

4. Create a vision board - Create a vision board together that represents your child's dreams and goals for a diverse and inclusive world. Talk about the different people and cultures represented in the board and how they can work towards making that vision a reality.

By engaging in these fun activities, you can start a conversation about diversity with your child in a way that is both fun and meaningful. By exposing children to diverse dolls, books, and experiences, you can help to promote understanding and acceptance of people who are different from themselves. So, go ahead and make a meaningful conversation about diversity and let the fun begin!
