DIY Black Lives Matter Sign

Here at Kid Made Modern, we've been spending the last few weeks learning what it means to be anti-racist and an ally to Black people. It is our responsibility to educate, learn, and grow with our own families and children. As crafters, sometimes the best way to express ourselves and teach our children is through creating art. We created a printable Black Lives Matter sign that you can make with your family as you talk through ways you can be an ally and fight racism. Hang the finished product in your window or use at a protest.
