In the most recent Nutrition Workshop for parents, we made two delicious recipes that highlight the benefits of chickpeas, a protein that helps with healthy bones and muscles, and eggplant, which supports good eyesight if eaten frequently. These workshops promote sustainable and healthy eating habits based on the consumption of vegetable proteins and a variety of unprocessed or minimally processed foods, all of which help maintain good health.

The ‘Learning at Home’ workshops this month focused on dealing with emotions in daily situations using an activity called The Movie of My Life, in which groups created several everyday situations that one might face at home. Then, we came up with suggestions and relaxation techniques to reduce tension and return to a state of calm.

At the Soledad site we continue with our healthy eating mission, promoting it through different activities that strengthen the adaptation and consumption of foods rich in vitamins and minerals that keep our physical health stable. This week we worked on the digestive system, making a visual representation, and explaining the journey that food makes through each organ with an illustrative sheet that the children were able to decipher and put together.

This week at the Soledad site we had an activity with Heartland Alliance International, an organization committed to the social welfare of the communities that live in Latin America and the Caribbean through the promotion of human rights. Parents received training on health and self- care and a biosafety kit with elements for personal care.

In the Soledad Headquarters, we finished our Recreational Vacation. These last three weeks were full of fun, imagination, and great learning, which took us every day to a magical place. The last station of the series of activities was the Estación del Color; a space to play and meet different challenges, one of them was the twister of emotions, a fun activity where we teach our children to express their feelings and emotions.
