Talking about voting with kids can seem challenging, especially for the younger ones. Where do you start? Would they understand? Would they remember? Is it realistic, they are just kids… All these thoughts are normal and totally valid. But civic duties are better taught young, as a “normal” process of life, so they stick to it when it’s time for them to take on their own civic duties.
Find more kid-friendly locations to visit and bring awareness about voting on the GoWhee App, and try it out today for FREE.
This can be done at any age and has more of an impact on children than we think. Here are a few of our favorite books about voting and civic duties in general:

Make sure YOU vote, and that they know about it! Kids learn best when you lead by example. So no matter the challenges you face when voting this year, make sure to talk about it. They should know that democracy is a right, and that it is not always easy but it is worth fighting for!
