Coloured

Alright kiddo, let's talk about the word "coloured". Sometimes we use this word to talk about things that have different colours, like a rainbow or a pretty picture. But sometimes people use this word to talk about people who have different skin colours.

You know how people come in all shapes and sizes? Well, they also come in different colours. Some people have light skin, some people have dark skin, and some people have skin in between. And that's completely normal and okay!

But sometimes, people treat others differently just because they have a different skin colour. This is called racism, and it's never okay. Just remember - we should always treat everyone with kindness and respect, no matter what their skin colour is or what they look like.
