These days have been very productive in the reference blog for all families that have children from five to 12 years. We have talked about health, education, reading, leisure, cooperation, technology, and as! Halloween… That party that has arrived to settle in our homes, while we try to combine tradition with novelties, consumption with own elaboration.
The last posts dedicated to this holiday they have been the celebration in Soria of the legend of 'El Monte de las Ánimas', the entrance dedicated to 'Hotel Transilvania', a tutorial to paint 'Mexican skulls', a craft based on a cut-out skeleton, and our particular selection of activities organized for the occasion in different cities of Spain. And also about Halloween, but more oriented to the prevention of, it is this article that tells us about prudence when it comes to eating treats. In the space we dedicate to health, we have also taken care to highlight the importance of good hand washing, and about smoking in young people.
We have read a lot, and different reading recommendations have been offered: the comic (already a classic) Nemo Slumberland, 'the warriors of the Scorpion clan', the 'Dare to Know' Guide published by the Kirico club, and the news that Mc Donald's Spain has already started giving away books instead of toys.
As you know we like it introduce technology and that children become familiar with tools that will be useful in the future, you will understand that we have presented Mattel's Apptivity, and that Marcos has brought us a video to explain how the Imaginarium 'Super Paquito' tablet works.
Our children spend a good part of their lives in school (five of the most fortunate), so it is logical that we pay attention to all the educational issues that we know interest parents and moms. This time we were surprised by the dispensing of contraceptive treatments in schools in the United Kingdom. Nor have we liked that bullying cases increase in Peru, and we have been able to reflect on the alternative model of Vittra schools in Sweden.
A reflection that makes us think about the reasons young people have for emancipating late, our orientations to guide the artistic creation of children, and the Scrabble world championship held in Spain, have been other topics addressed.
