Teachers and parents of those in early childhood must be aware of the perceptions of the children, allow open and critical discussions regarding all aspects of diversity, offer the children opportunities to interact with diverse populations and make sure all educational material such as books, television, videos, paintings, music, computer games, and puzzles to name a few should contain diverse populations. Through early interaction, parents and educators can open the child’s learning environment and provide the child the invaluable aspects of acceptance, tolerance and the celebration of diversity.
