The Fred Rogers Institute is bustling with activity. This coming month is jampacked with in-person and virtual events that cater to a wide range of interests and age groups, honoring the legacy of Fred Rogers. From educational webinars and community outreach initiatives to celebratory events like Fred Rogers' birthday on March 20th, there's something for everyone to enjoy and learn from.
Additionally, we're thrilled to announce that Hedda Sharapan's monthly newsletter has been integrated into our Fred Rogers Institute quarterly newsletter. This partnership will allow us to provide even more valuable insights and resources to our community, ensuring that Fred Rogers' messages of kindness and compassion continue to resonate in the hearts and minds of people across the world.
Talking to Children about Difficult Things in the News
During times of tragedy and difficulty in the news, it can be difficult to know whether and how to talk to children about what is happening in their world. In this resource we offer ideas and support for guiding children through news about difficult current events.
Educators in all sorts of settings may work with adoptive, foster, and kinship families, and the children within them. The lessons within this resource are to support those educators, as they in turn support these children and families.
Your financial support of the Institute helps us expand our initiatives and resources so that educators and children's helpers can continue to learn and grow from Fred Rogers' legacy. Thank you!
