Today we celebrate International Children’s Day. Are you looking for an idea to celebrate it with your children? Or maybe you feel like children yourselves? Here are some ideas on how to celebrate this holiday.

For over 3 years, we have been developing inspirations for educators, helping them to translate the great challenges of today's world into concrete ideas for action here and now. We shared our experience with AIESEC volunteers, preparing them to prepare workshops on the Sustainable Development Goals for children as part of World’s Largest Lesson on April 12, 2019.

The mind is a genius tool for exploring the world, provided we update the software. We should show students how to keep the mind updated and to correct the conclusions it draws. We should teach logical thinking and a critical approach to information sources. This will help students think about the world, about others, and about themselves.

Who do I want to be? What am I striving for? What's right? Students ask many questions and the answers are rarely unambiguous. Social limitations, as well as those imposed by their own minds, can block students' development and choices. This is why the role of a teacher is so important – to inspire, to support, and to show that an open mind means a much greater chance for self-fulfilment.
