Kid Quiddity was created because we saw a need for how our children were learning about themselves and the world.
WHY SEX ED? Well, we teach kids about math, English, geography, science… but so many times, we don’t teach them about themselves and the bodies that they will inhabit for their whole lives. Teaching kids how to have responsible relationships, appropriate language, and factual knowledge about their bodies helps them to make educated choices as they grow older. Removing the stigma from these conversations will have lifelong, lasting effects will help kids connect with trusted adults when they need advice.
The Curriculum for Kid Quiddity is from the Our Whole Lives Program, used by the Unitarian Church.
