Our children are too young to vote, but last week we decided to propose them a special activity: a “Democracy game” ! The activity was focalized on the definition of the rules that guide our time together, in order to explain its to new children that joint our program recently, and to remind its to the others. We involved every child directly: in a first time every one wrote on a paper his/her ideas about the rules that we have to respect. In a second time we shared these ideas and, through a votation, we decided which of these support and which not. At the end we collected all our ideas on two posters.
Now, in our classroom, two big posters remember us and our children how to stay together in the best way…
