New partnership combines Civics + Arts

NaliniKIDS teamed up with the Kennedy Center Education team to bring arts and movement together in a whole new way. This civics collection of signature OOPA videos focuses on the five ideals often ascribed to John F. Kennedy: COURAGE, FREEDOM, JUSTICE, SERVICE, and GRATITUDE.

Through this age-appropriate introduction to foundational civic concepts, we aim to support teachers in laying the groundwork for active and engaged citizens.
