Turn Beauty Inside Out Day! Wednesday, May 17th
Turn Beauty Inside Out invites people everywhere to celebrate Inner Beauty - the beauty of conviction, caring, and action. Girls and boys need a definition of beauty that focuses on who we are and what we do, rather than how we look.(Source: http://sylvanlakelibrary.blogspot.com/2013/05/may-15-turn-beauty-inside-out-day.html)
Turn Beauty Inside Out serves as a counterbalance to the damaging and unhealthy messages about beauty we are bombarded with in media, film, advertising, and music every day. Funds raised allow girls worldwide to define their own Inner Beauty and honour it through healthy media, while raising awareness about the negative effects of harmful media messages.
Listed below are some websites that have ideas on how to incorporate this important message in your classrooms.
