October is National Bullying Prevention Month, a great time to approach the subject of bullying and cyberbullying with kids. Although it is unfortunate that bullying has become such an enormous problem over the years, there are plenty of fantastic resources to help parents and teachers have meaningful discussions with their kids about how to deal with being bullied and how to prevent it from happening to others.
Here are a few of the great free resources that Scholastic has to offer this year!
- Scholastic Parents has the ultimate Parent Guide to Bullying, a collection of articles that deal with identifying bullying issues and building confidence.
- Here are our top picks for books on bullying, for every age!
- Choices, Scholastic's classroom magazine for teens, created a fantastic "Take a Compliment" flyer that kids can post in school to promote positivity!
- Scholastic Parent & Child magazine interviewed a "bully coach" about the best ways that parents can deal with bullying.
