Learning about new cultures is not only interesting, it provides a way of understanding that not everyone thinks like you do and that’s not only okay, but great.

Our grandsons are just beginning to be really interested in traveling and learning about cultures throughout the world. We are planning our first international trip with them next summer, but, they first decide where we are going! Thanks for the superb giveaway opportunity.
I really want to win this for my son. It’s a perfect combo. He loves to read especially about other parts of the world. He’s also been wanting a tablet of his own and he’s getting to the age where I think he would be responsible with having one and taking care of it.
Books are a great way to teach children from a young age about diversity, love and tolerance. I would love to add to my grandkids bookshelf.

the world is so diverse and with the internet we interact with people of all backgrounds so it’s important to expose ourselves to other cultures.
Learn other cultures are so important to respect and understand other lives Great gift for my son
My son would love a tablet! and learning about other cultures teaches him acceptance
I’m a first time mom, so I’m trying to build a great book collection for my son. Learning about cultures is important because I want my son to understand that despite our differences, people are very much the same.
I teach preschool and I want to share this opportunity with my students.
I would like to win this giveaway for my nephew. Learning about other cultures should educate us about why diversity should be embraced.
I have two young grandchildren in elementary school. They live in a rural area now, unlike their mother who was exposed to a wide range of peoples. I want them to have this opportunity.
I would love to win this for my kids. It’s important to me that my kids are aware of the world and are empathic- and respectful- towards other cultures.
A neighbor is from Brazil and is teaching my kids some Portuguese so this would be a fun way to teach them more about Brazil.
My daughter Allissiaunna would love these two prizes for Christmas!
I’d like to win for my kids for Christmas they all love learning!
I would love to win this for my kids. I want my kids to always learn about new cultures and to respect them.
Main reason I would like to win is because my son asked for a tablet for Christmas. Winning this would ease the finances on our end because sadly… we are Santa!
Learning about cultures is super important to me as I want my children to be well rounded. I luckily live in a city where there are many cultures around. In the summer months we attend festivals of other cultures than our own. When you teach your children of the way others live they are less likely to grow up narrow minded (my husband was not exposed as a child and I see how that translates to a adult. It frustrates me so much and I think that is more of a reason to educate our children).
