Get to know the Continents

Children will familiarize themselves with basic geography.  They expand their horizons regarding the landmasses of the Earth.  Where we live, what other continents exist, how different people and cultures can live elsewhere, how the nature changes with regards to the continent location and so on.  They will deepen their perception of the world as a whole and in details.

 

Travel as … Role playing game

This game brings a lot of reflection and fun. Children will empathize with a role in a certain situation. This activity develops empathy, logical thinking, cooperation and imagination. It also allows the feelings and emotions in the role of someone else thus children are less shy. 

What are we like?

Children will recognize the differences between various races and ethnicities from the outside look (color of the skin, hair, different clothes etc.) but at the same time they will realize that we are all humans living on this planet Earth. They will think about what can unite us – breaking xenophobia, racism, not making differences between people. This activity promotes tolerance and awareness of ourselves and others.

My mysterious World 

This activity empowers child’s fantasy, creativity and imagination.

The child will create its own world according to him/herself. Therefore, you can find out what are his/her wishes and what he/she desires. Children realize what they like, what they like doing by answering the given questions. They can also focus on positive things and what they want to have in their lives = world.

"Each activities are well and easy explained, no one has to guess or think about what to do there. It has everything, additional questions, tasks and it makes children to think about the topic. I think the tasks are appropriate to the announced age of 6-12 years, younger ones might need help from their teacher. Really, you just print it, laminate and it is ready to use. It is also good that you can do the activities with a group as well as with individuals. Visually beautiful, interesting, various levels of difficulty, rich in content, clearly explained, everything ready."

I like to create, experience and get to know new, untraditional things. I am interested in cultures, nature, stories of people and uniqueness of all kinds.

I aim to avoid routine, stereotypes, “solid tracks”, prejudices, judgements and “fitting into the box”.
