One way to teach our similarities with each other is to emphasize the commonality of biological and psychological needs. For example, if we're talking with a group of children about favorite foods, we can make the point of reminding them that no matter what specific things we like to eat, all children get hungry and all people can enjoy eating food together. No matter who we are, everyone feels mad sometimes, most people want to have friends and most everyone feels a little upset when their mothers leave them at school. It's also important to ensure that children experience a nonsexist classroom. All the children, both girls and boys, must be encouraged equally to explore the full range of their abilities, feelings and potential.
Every child is entitled to experience all the activities that the child care center provides.
Nonsexist education means enabling children of both sexes to step beyond narrowly restricted gender roles and stereotypes. At the same time, it's essential for boys and girls to understand and value their own biological uniqueness as males and females.
