Bringing up kids in a gender-neutral<\/strong> environment is not an easy task in India. Parents who are willing to raise their children in such a way have to be courageous, unbiased, and fully committed to the process. The process of course is ongoing and they have to be on the same page of opinions as they want their children to be. But it is only possible if the kids are learning the same thing in their schools as in their homes. The journey is easier for preschool kids<\/strong> as it is the foundation age of any social behavior.<\/p>\n

Starting from the neutral<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Preschool kids<\/strong><\/a> will learn on the basis of what their parents and their teachers, who also are second parents to them, will teach them. Gender is an arrangement created to keep people in boxes and our country is still coping with such aspects. Young Parents and Teachers need to neutralize their ways of educating their children by showing them female-oriented comic books, and male-oriented movies doing household chores to neutralize what the past generation has taught us.<\/p>\n

Let them Choose<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Preschool Activities<\/strong> are a major part of the curriculum in the pre-schools. Teachers must ensure that they let the kids decide what they like and what they do not. Moving far away from the Pinks and Blues, kids must learn that it is alright for a boy to wear pink and it is okay if a girl likes blue color. It doesn\u2019t mean that we need to erase gender as a form, but to reduce its impact and restrict the stereotypes that have gender labels. Activities like gender-neutral<\/strong> games, choosing their favorite color, choosing their favorite dress, and letting boys and girls play together.<\/p>\n

Preach What you Teach<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Gender-neutral behavior<\/strong> comes from home. Parents and Teachers<\/strong><\/a> need to understand that a child learns from their elders as they render similar behavior as their parents; how they behave with individuals, how they perform gender-neutral duties at home, and how they look up to the sexualities of people surrounding them.<\/p>\n

Gender-Neutral Words<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Here are some words that need modification in day-to-day prattle.<\/p>\n
