Little Children, Big Challenges
Committee for Children and Sesame Street have partnered to create a collection of resources for young children facing significant challenges. These materials, aimed at building children’s resilience, may be useful for educators and families.
​
A podcast where we use our imaginations to talk about the things that matter, with the people that matter most.
​
Here, children can find games, comics, and activities they can do on their own, or with their families, to learn about how they can help stop bullying.
​
A resource to help families talk with their children about child sexual abuse. Families may be spending a lot more time together during school closures, which makes this an opportune time to have these difficult but very important conversations.
​
For families with older children, this resource provides an online experience they can share together. It’s loaded with videos, resources, and useful advice to help teens and the adults in their lives address hot-button topics.
