"What do you want to be when you grow up?"
A question everyone has been asked at some point in their childhood.
We’d love to think that the answer truly is that we can be anything we want to be, but stereotypes abound and create limitations.
Different Fits is a unique mix-and-match jigsaw puzzle to help kids look beyond those stereotypes and use the superpowers of their imagination as they shape their future.
There are 10 everyday professions in this game illustrated with a race or gender not usually associated with it. Kids can either recreate the original illustration by matching the color, or mix the pieces up and come up with their own idea of who these different characters are. A great way to see that we should never be defined by what we look like or only by what we do.A Supreme Court Justice who loves to cook and dance? Yes! A scientist who is a volunteer firefighter? Of course!
We hope your young ones see themselves in one or more of these professions, or feel inspired to dream up their own.
