Voting is merely a culminating activity of Kids Voting. It is just as important (maybe even more important) to educate kids about why we vote and the history of sufferage in our nation before they cast their ballot. As the Founding Fathers realized over 200 years ago, our democratic republic depends on the education and engagement of our populace. In fact, our nation's history of compulsory public education owes itself to this principle. Kids Voting Arizona, in partnership with Kids Voting USA, provides teachers with classroom activities that prepare youth to be active and engaged citizens. Research conducted over the last two decades shows that Kids Voting activities are effective. Participating kids will confirm that the activities can even make learning civics fun!
