Description:
Have the children sit in a circle. One by one, each child takes a turn sitting in the "special chair" (or standing in the center). The other children take turns sharing one positive thing they appreciate about that child, such as a talent, personality trait, or something kind they've done.
Example: "I like how you always share your toys with others" or "You're really funny and make us laugh."
After everyone has gone, discuss how it feels to give and receive compliments and how recognizing others' strengths helps build respect.

Objective:
This activity emphasises recognising and respecting individual differences in personality, abilities, and character. It promotes a positive classroom environment where each child feels valued and respected.

A discussion paper presents the findings of a literature review in relation to child rights education with very young children, and the outcomes of some informal research undertaken with practitioners working on this topic in seven countries.

Developed by UNICEF, the UN Global Compact and Save the Children - the Children's Rights and Business Principles are the first comprehensive set of principles to guide companies on the full range of actions they can take in the workplace, marketplace and community to respect and support children's rights.

For governments, NGOs and human rights practitioners

Published in connection with the 30th anniversary of the Convention, this report is intended as an advocacy tool to both celebrate the achievements of the past three decades and generate dialogue on the critical work that remains - especially for children who have been left behind.

An interactive document that aims to encourage an in-depth and broad-based exploration of the links and synergies between the Global Goals for Sustainable Development and the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

The toolkit defines what is meant by child rights education and the child rights approach. The toolkit explains the relevance of child rights education to UNICEF's mission and the ways in which education can take place in a range of contexts - including with professionals, caregivers, the corporate sector, the media, and children's groups.

This study explores child rights education in early childhood education, primary and secondary schools in 26 countries. It includes a literature review, results from an online survey completed by national experts, seven country case studies and a series of benchmarking statements to guide implementation of child rights education.
