Different

I thought today was a great day with the girls. Our first goal was loving ourselves, and today we started our next goal: learning to accept others and be respectful of differences. First, we had the girls draw pictures of what it means to them to be different. There was a wide variety of ideas that they had, from hair length to una-brows. Then, we had the girls write down words that described who they were. Then, we had them come up with stereotypes having to do with their words. The girls were very respectful of each other, but it was kind of hard for them to understand exactly what stereotypes were so we might need to go over this a little more in the future.
