In the Soledad headquarters we take advantage of this holiday season to develop different activities where the children of the Foundation explored their artistic skills, and additionally learned healthy habits that strengthen their socio-emotional development through a pedagogical booklet that guides the process. Crafts, drawings, dance, relaxation exercises, board games, reading stories, and adventures in the kitchen with fun recipes were part of this activity.

In the Soledad headquarters, we had this week our Nutritional Workshop for Parents, carrying out different pedagogical activities to teach families the consumption and preparation of some vegetables that strengthen the immune system. As an example, we talked about Celery, which is rich in fiber and also has anti-inflammatory, expectorant, antibacterial and diuretic properties.

Today in the Nutritional Care Center, of the Soledad Headquarters, we work clearly and simply on how often we should consume certain foods; using a stop light as a guide, we place in red the forbidden foods, in the yellow those that we must consume in moderation and in the green those that we can eat without any restriction.

At the Soledad headquarters, we highlight the work of the group of volunteer parents who actively support the dining services and are observers of the projects that are developed in their community; this is a strategy of the psychosocial program that allows families to be empowered, creating a sense of belonging and self-management within the process of social transformation.

The “Educating at Home Workshops’’ are training spaces that seek to generate pedagogical and socio-emotional tools for parents to strengthen the process of accompaniment that they give to their children when performing academic homework. During this week we worked on some effective communication exercises to improve coexistence within the family and maintain an environment conducive to learning and sharing experiences.

The nutritional workshops are part of the intervention axis of the Food Security project, which seeks to improve the eating habits of the beneficiaries and their families through an educational and pedagogical process that includes a variety of healthy menus, using quality products at a low cost.

In the Nutritional Care Center we work to improve the eating habits of our children; this week we highlighted the importance of learning to choose a healthy menu, which needs to be balanced, complementary, and sufficient, taking into account the different food groups.

This week we joined the celebration of Children’s Day, promoting the right to food with a healthy menu and different recreational activities. Today, as always, we highlighted the importance of consuming healthy foods to maintain our physical and mental health.

This week we visited our group of families in Soledad to carry out our follow-up process and provide the necessary routes of attention to the priority cases.

During this week we received the children of the Nutritional Care Center with a delicious welcome menu and various recreational activities to celebrate the beginning of the year. We also had the visit of our director, who was enjoying as well of this great celebration.
