###### Inside:

Research shows that children internalize messages about identity and belonging from as young as 3 months. They can start forming ideas about race and identity before they have the language to express it. If we proactively create a container for these conversations, they will be supported in developing a healthy approach to their identity. 

Here are some ways you can begin talking about identity and belonging with young children.
