With the U.S. presidential election right around the corner, it's the perfect time to introduce kids to the topic of voting. The good news: There's no need to get political! You can let kids vote on what to have for snack, what to read at bedtime, and even whether to take the shortcut or the scenic route home. Even better, counting up votes is great for early math skills, and helps kids understand the idea of democracy, too.
