  1. This is an interesting blog which contains a video made by the Ghetto Film School that highlights how through creativity we can transform the reality and improve the ways of learning. For this reason, it is very important to take advantage of the great potentiality that children from two to five years old have. They are curious by nature and want to know about their surroundings and begin to ask questions, one after the other, which are endless. This is the time when parents have an enormous responsibility about the future of their kids because it depends on them how the future of a nation can change. This is the start of a new generation to change our world to make it more peaceful, generous, solidarious so they can express with freedom and maybe in the future they can be leaders of a better world.
