Color It Rights! A Child's Introduction to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and Accompanying Teacher's Guide

The "Color It Rights" colouring book and teacher's guide from Cape Breton University's Children's Rights Centre, Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada, are paired early child development materials designed to introduce the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC or "the Convention"). Each picture in the colouring book represents an article of the Convention. The colouring book is designed as a suitable teaching tool about the UNCRC for pre-literate children.

This resource uses pictures to present the UNCRC and to convey the meanings of Convention articles to children, with corresponding simplified language for teachers to read aloud. The production and distribution of this resource was funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage, Government of Canada.

The teacher's guide, available in English and French, is designed to accompany the colouring book. It explains the UNCRC and why to teach it to young children. It gives lesson plans in the format: summary, preparation, and method, as well as reproducible materials for the classroom.
