Kids for Kids
Our
Kids for Kids Curriculum
Seeks to foster happy and creative classroom environments, while helping children grow, develop important skills, and learn. about the people, communities, and cultures of the world.
In conjunction with our nonprofit Imagine Kids for Kids, this curriculum helps kids experience both what’s near and what’s far. We build on in-class activities and books and connect our students with real-life experiences. We work with schools across the world to introduce our students to their global peers, we learn about those who are in need of help and we host fun-raisers to raise awareness and money for those in need.
