What is your advice on instilling a culture in a home? Culture is what we say, what we do, the way we think, so the culture is who I am. I really recommend parents talk with kids and enjoy family time. For the little kids, the traditional food and the story could feed their tummies and brains, so please celebrate the traditional Festivals. They will enjoy it.
To make sure that we do our job in helping you build your child’s cultural identity as authentically as possible, we work with our international Spark Guides. They are a team of inspiring cultural ambassadors who are passionate about celebrating their culture with the world!
Celebrate national holidays around the world with your family. Learn about a country’s culture and traditions, songs and dances, food and games. Bring the whole family ‘round the campfire and have a party!
Reading to your multicultural kids is one of the easiest and most effective ways to spark conversation with them. Here are a few of our favorites that feature multicultural images and global perspectives for every age
For many of us multicultural parents, we have the added burden of not only making sure our children learn about their varied heritage, but to also grow up being proud of it.
