Queer Kid Stuff is an LGBTQ+ and social justice webseries for kids and families created by Lindsay Amer. The LGBTQ+ Inclusive Family Unit includes materials and resources pulled directly from and inspired by QKS videos and music. Family is so important to talk about in school and I wanted to provide a resource for you to help you include LGBTQ+ families in your family unit for your K-6 classroom! You can use the resources in this guide to supplement your existing unit on family, or you can fill
Make your classroom more inclusive this school year with our pronoun cards! You can laminate them and use them in your lessons about pronouns, you can place them on students' desks, use them as name cards at the beginning of the school year, post them on bulletin boards, and turn them into a coloring activity. The sky's the limit! You can email me at business@queerkidstuff.com for any feedback or questions you have about this unit. I’d love to hear from you! Have fun! Love, Lindsay

Teaching style
Positive and joyful simple conversations about seemingly complex topics. I'm all about meeting kids where they're at and answering their questions honestly and openly the best I can. I use music, metaphor, and storytelling to engage and entertain.
