This week, the children in the dining hall participated in a fun and educational activity called the Nutritional Traffic Light. During the session, they learned to identify healthy foods (green), those that should be consumed in moderation (yellow), and those that should be avoided or consumed only occasionally (red). Through games and activities, the children reinforced their understanding of the importance of a balanced diet while enjoying classifying the foods they eat daily. This activity aims to encourage healthy habits from an early age and promote better nutrition.

This week, the children in the dining hall participated in an educational activity about healthy eating, where they classified different foods as healthy or unhealthy. The activity allowed them to learn about the importance of a balanced diet and how food impacts their health. Additionally, discussions about food choices were encouraged, fostering informed decision-making from an early age. It was a fun experience that reinforced essential knowledge for a healthier lifestyle.

Durante esta semana, los niños participaron en diferentes actividades simbólicas que fomentan el entendimiento y la convivencia pacífica. Se reforzaron valores como la tolerancia y el respeto a través de dinámicas grupales, charlas y actividades lúdicas. Los pequeños también realizaron murales colaborativos que reflejan sus sueños de un mundo en paz, promoviendo así la creatividad y el trabajo en equipo. Con estas acciones, la fundación busca no solo celebrar la paz, sino también inculcar en los niños la importancia de convivir en armonía y resolver conflictos de manera pacífica.

At our Soledad location, the children enjoyed a day full of imagination and energy with the Superheroes of Nutrition activity. The little ones pretended to be their favorite superheroes and, through a balanced diet, regained their powers, such as strength, speed, and intelligence. This fun activity not only encouraged healthy eating habits but also promoted creativity and teamwork, reinforcing the importance of good nutrition for growing up strong and full of energy.

Within the framework of educational workshops with parents and children, we have highlighted the importance of breakfast, considered the most important meal of the day, as it provides the necessary nutrients and energy to successfully start school activities. Today, we worked on identifying the appropriate times for breakfast and the food groups we should prioritize to start the day with full energy.

One of the main objectives of the food security program is for children to learn how to eat healthily. This week, we conducted a pedagogical activity using the Nutritional Pyramid through a puzzle, where participants used their creativity and ingenuity to arrange the pieces while also internalizing the food groups and how we can combine them in each meal of the day.

This week, the boys and girls in the food security program participated in a fun and colorful activity where they learned to identify the colors of different foods. Using paint and their own hands, the little artists appreciated the variety of healthy foods that are part of their daily lives. It was a day filled with joy, learning, and lots of color!

This month, our nutritional workshop focused on strategies for preparing healthy meals quickly, considering that there are parents with multiple responsibilities. Our chef Jaime Buendía shared various food options that can be bought, handled, and prepared in advance, such as salads, pasta, vegetable protein croquettes, empanadas, soups, etc.

This week, at the Soledad center, parents participating in the Entrepreneurial Behavior course with the National Learning Service (SENA) are developing their business proposals in a structured manner, identifying market needs using the Canvas model.

Throughout this month, we have conducted association and semantic awareness exercises to promote children’s adaptation and acceptance of new fruits and vegetables. This activity involved choosing a random letter from the alphabet, and the children had to write down a fruit and a vegetable that started with that letter, describing their taste and color.
