If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you've seen my stories discussing how I’ve been learning and working to support the Black Lives Matter movement, both personally and with Little Miss Party. Like me, you’re probably picking up the phone, signing the petitions, making donations, and reading & discussing ways to be anti-racist with your kids.

I know you come here for party planning inspiration, recipes, hosting & entertaining tips, gift guides and more. We will continue to share that content! We haven’t highlighted Black-owned brands or businesses enough, and for that we apologize. We vow to do better...both here on our blog and behind the scenes.

To start, my team has scoured the internet, and we’ve also gathered your responses from Instagram, resulting in an amazing list of shops to support. We’re working on blog posts with items for home, fashion, jewelry and more and will share those soon. In the meantime let’s start with KIDS!

We had a hard time choosing, but the images below are some of our favs! When you have time, I encourage you to click through to each shop and poke around. Place an order, or add them to your bookmarks so you can be sure to visit next time you’re looking for a new book or grabbing a gift. If you’re unable to shop right now, consider sharing with a friend. Visit their social channels and give them a follow. If you have a shop we missed please feel free to drop it in the comments!
