From Misty Copeland to Sacagawea, history is full of amazing women for children to look up to!

Among the notable figures often spotlighted during Women’s History Month are Sacagawea, a Native American woman who helped make Lewis and Clark’s expedition to map parts of the West in the early 19th century a success; Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, who fought for equality for women in the mid-19th century, more than 70 years before the 19th Amendment gave women the right to vote in the United States in 1920; Harriet Tubman, a spy who led slaves to freedom during the Civil War; Amelia Earhart, one of the world’s first female pilots (she mysteriously disappeared over the Pacific Ocean in 1937); Madeleine Albright, who became the first female Secretary of State in 1996; and Misty Copeland, the first African-American woman to be named a principal dancer—the highest level—in the 75-year history of the American Ballet Theatre in 2015. To encourage your child to read & learn more about Women’s History Month, and all the amazing she-roes we honor, visit here.

Introducing Children to Women’s History Month.

March is Women’s History Month, and not just because of International Women’s Day which falls on the 8th of March. Starting in 1978 as a “Women’s History Week” in Sonoma County, California, the observation that aimed to highlight the contributions of women throughout history quickly spread internationally. On behalf of the National Women’s History Project in 1987, Congress turned it from a week to a month. And, while there’s a number of ways adults honor this month, it’s even more important to consider how to celebrate women’s history month for kids.

Kids should learn about the brave and brilliant women in history who shaped our society and contributed to many scientific discoveries without which, it’s hard to imagine the world we live in today. Should learning be done exclusively through textbooks? Definitely, not!

Stay with us and keep reading, to see many different ways in which you can celebrate women’s history month for kids. We’ll take a look at different activities, teaching resources, worksheets, picture books, novels, and inspirational Ted Talks that have the power to touch upon some of the most vital issues that women face today.
