Raising Generation Alpha Kids Summary

Raising Generation Alpha Kids by Valora Washington

Generation Alpha applies to children born between 2011 and 2025. They will be raised in smaller and constantly evolving families, digital natives, more tech-savvy than previous generations, globally-connected, diverse, and will live and interact with many more generations. Because of these differences, the next generation and the nation is transforming in ways that adults have never experienced before. Valora Washington invites you to consider how to advocate for and influence the trajectories of this next generation.

Raising Generation Alpha Kids Reviews

Valora Washington has identified six powerful, transformative megatrends that have the potential to reshape and refocus the way in which we think and talk about early childhood education, as well as race, gender, and class. She writes that it is a book of hope and activism and that is true, it is also a book about leadership, raw courage, and truth to power. -Maurice Sykes, author of Doing the Right Thing for Children: Eight Qualities of Leadership

A timely book that invites us to consider in positive terms how a transformed world is possible. Framing her case using current trends and data, Dr. Washington builds a foundation of optimism and possibilities. While many challenges remain, she is a firm believer in that next generation-the Alphas-who have the rigor, skills and hope to make a better world for all. -Luis A. Hernandez, early childhood education specialist, and co-author of Learning from Bumps in the Road
