You don't have to be perfect.
Some parents are afraid they'll say the wrong thing. But silence is worse. Working in partnership with university professors, we provide families with research-backed prompts to help you engage in healthy, age-appropriate conversations with your children.
Your children already "see" race.
Research shows that by 3 months old, babies spend more time looking at faces that match their caregiver's race. By 3 years old, most children show skin color preferences when choosing their playmates. But research also shows that explicit conversations with 5–7 year olds about interracial friendship can dramatically improve their racial attitudes in as little as a single week.
You can do this!
Families that can talk about race are families that can challenge racism. With a new book, discussion guide, and set of kid-friendly challenges in the mail each month, Ripple Reads makes it easy for you to raise change makers!
Our Story
