Free election guide for children

Help your children understand the general election

The Week Junior has teamed up with the Democracy Classroom to bring you resources to help your children explore and understand the upcoming general election.

Children are likely to have lots of questions about the election - what it all means, who the key players are, what their parties want. They may not get a vote, but it's important for them to understand what's happening so they feel empowered to get involved when their time comes.

There are two guides to choose from;

1. Life skills: election special

This guide is all about equipping children with important skills they'll see in action during the election campaign period. From learning how to debate to finding out how to identify fake news, it's packed with advice that can help them both at school - and at home.

2. All about the general election

The second tells them all about the election process, taking the complicated bits and making them clear and accessible. There's also information on what democracy is all about, as well as different types of government across the world.
