Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Play is a vital aspect of learning for young children, particularly those with special needs. By incorporating culturally diverse dolls into their play, students can experiment with social roles and scenarios that reflect the world around them.This project will be helpful in promoting understanding of diversity

The dollhouse, populated with dolls representing various cultures, ethnicities, and family structures, provides a tangible way for students to explore and celebrate diversity.

Through guided discussions and storytelling activities centered around the dollhouse, We can introduce concepts of fairness, respect, and equality. When children see dolls that reflect their own identities, they experience a sense of belonging, which is crucial for their emotional and social development. This representation can empower them and encourage all students to appreciate and respect differences.

In summary, a dollhouse with culturally diverse family dolls not only serves as a creative play resource but also as an essential tool for teaching Pre-K students about racial justice and representation.
