Activity Guide to Complement It's Hard Not to Stare: Helping Children Understand Disabilities

We are pleased to share this five part Activity Guide to compliment, “It’s Hard Not to Stare: Helping Children Understand Disabilities” (Compassion Series’ book 2). The five activity suggestions have been respectfully crafted by the Compassion Series Council, to serve as an additional forum for meaningful discussion and processing with children, in an effort to deepen understanding and inspire compassion. We encourage educators and parents to be creative and thoughtful as they unpack and/or adapt the activities, and/or create their own. Another interesting approach might be to have older children guide younger children through an activity, or activities. As always, we enthusiastically suggest the focused tone for the activities is dignity-and-kindness centered.
