I invite all those interested in creating forms of helping children to become better citizens in the future, to think/ create/ plann and so on, activities, manuals, materials, educational forms, games, and so on to reach this goal, and share them in this section in order for all those working with children may have more resuources for their approach to kids in this area.

Traditional Schools just teach things that expect for children to memorize but does not help to create inner tools for internal growth. Many students with academical exellency, have a disaster in their human relationships. Educational sistems must enhance offering tools of internal maturity, for emotional balance, for universal human values assestment in their students.
Children must not be seen as intelectual, memorizing machines

Hi!

So that we can develop internal tools for the good growth in ourselves, we need a lot of fun and creativity. If to us gives because a little bit no pleasure, we lose the desire to it.

Our very best teacher is the nature and our own internal voice which knows certainly what is, actually, properly for us.:) And I think that we can be all childrenlike-beings if we are interested for each other.
Hi
There are plenty of already written and constructed and distributed materials and tools for kids and parents to read or view and learn from on the topic of raisinsg children. They have similar tools also for parents [adults] which perhaps the most important phase of any upbringing.
What do parents and mentors do to their off spring? Or to childen n general in societies worldwide. Are parents the role models we like to see. Th answer is No..not always but hopefully most of the time.
So the issue you raise 'Mold' children [mold being a word I wish to refrain from for obvious reasons because we do not want every child to be the same which is what the word 'mold' insinuates] Human from the very outset of existence are free spirits. The arrive untainted by the envirnments and cultures surround their background from which each child will bring their impressions. The learning and indoctrination and teaching has begun.
Tell me one book or video or doctrine which can cover all the bases desired for the 'ideal' or perfect off spring we all as parents or guardians wish to have?
Hard work, love and compassin and common sense and dicipline are tools or manners we all need to exercise.

The most important thing for us in Shambala Camps Mexico is to teach children how to be happy in an unhappy world. Most of the kids games, programs, news, families and environment of modern society, have a large content of anxiety, fear, threat and violence. Money should not be an obstacle for having fun and finding fraternity. School teachers can take their kids to the nearest park, to the nearest natural environment and organize for them recreational guided activities (no competitions) where they can learn that being happy and making friends with their classmates is much more rewarding than fighting, competing, and struggling with one another. Nowadays socializing in harmony should be more important than other school topics, because why would we change human beings with happy kind hearts for great learned tecnocrats/ intelectuals with a bitter violent heart that will throw the world into more destruction.
My kids ( 10YO and 3YO) go to Baha'is classes and I can see how they are learning and experiencing peace together with all the most precious qualities rooted in humanity. Since they started classes last fall they have been striving to improve themselves and realize their full potential. I can see how they blossom every day into responsible and peaceful people, hor they direct their efforts to improve themselves everyday.
