¡Feliz Día de la Canción Criolla!

Una bella forma de inculcar a nuestros pequeños el amor por nuestra cultura, costumbres e identidad nacional, es celebrar también el "´Día de La Canción Criolla". Para hacer mucho más significativa esta fecha, preparamos diversas actividades como: la elaboración de anticuchos como manualidad, narración de cuentos de la época y escuchamos mucha música peruana durante la semana.  Los niños se esforzaron en preparar una bella presentación como número criollo, y como fin de fiesta realizamos un pequeño compartir en nuestra aula.

Sentimiento peruano, así se traduce esta actividad realizada por nuestros niños de "Ponies", que presentaron este último 31 de Octubre, la danza "Son de los Diablos", haciendo gala a través de ella de sus habilidades artísticas, asi como de todo su amor por la patria y el orgullo de ser peruanos.
Espero disfruten mucho de este pequeño videito con fotos de algunas de nuestras actividades ¡Que viva la Canción Criolla!

The White Daisy

It´s well known that children can learn important things and values through stories. The last month, Ponies were working on nature and plants: they worked in groups to create a big flower, they planted their own seed and decorated their flowerpots, too.
Finally we decided to tell them a story, "The White Daisy", a beautiful story about a little seed and how it grows.
It was a good way to check the previous vocabulary and review all the contents we had worked.
Here you are... Hope you enjoy it at home Ponies!!

Traffic Rules for Children

Parents and children have to deal with traffic all the time. Teaching children how to interpret street signs and signals, is the first rule of a good parenting. They should know what the lights and words mean, but they should also learn to take precautions. 


Start teaching your children about traffic rules at school is a must: children have to learn to be aware not only when they're crossing the street, but also, when they're on foot with their parents, or riding their bikes.If we begin telling our kids to stop at red lights while they are still very young, they'll probably have the message memorized by the time they venture out on their own. 
Therefore, if we want to keep our children safe, let´s practise the traffic rules all the time!

¡Bienvenidos a bordo!

El pasado 25 de setiembre, nuestros niños de Ponies visitaron las instalaciones
del Museo de la Fuerza Naval, ubicado  en el centro histórico del Callao.

A través de esta visita, nuestros niños lograron conocer un poco más de nuestra historia, así como a varios personajes célebres y héroes, como Miguel Grau y José Gálvez.
Durante el recorrido recordaron también algunos símbolo patrios como El Escudo y La Bandera Nacional.

Lo que más disfrutaron fue observar las diversos tipos de transporte, entre ellos, las
embarcaciones usadas en épocas antiguas, además del armamento que se usó como defensa durante combates pasados, en especial llamaron su atención, las espadas y los cañones de diversos tipos y tamaños.
 
Esperamos que hayan disfrutado de esta experiencia novedosa y significativa para ellos. Estamos seguros que hemos ayudado a sembrar la semilla de Identidad Nacional para que en un futuro sean grandes peruanos.. ¡Viva el Perú!

Teaching our children "Teamwork"


Being part of a team is not only related to sports, especially in early years. Our children engage in lots of activities that require teamwork. In class, they are usually asked to work on projects in pairs or in groups and, they play games which require them to make teams.

 Also, teamwork brings many benefits for life because it helps develop social skills in our children: listening to others’ opinions and ideas, conflict resolution, motivating others, and even supporting them.

All these things help your kids make friends at school and at home. Sociable kids are usually popular kids and teamwork is a big part of that.

The only way our children can find the success they deserve in life is having the ability to work with others. They will achieve their goals in life faster and more easily when they get help from those around them.

Healthy Eating for Children


Dear parents,
 
For young children, eating healthy food is not as easy as you may think. What they want - cookies, sodas, French fries, lollipops, fast junk food - is the easy option. Getting them to eat healthier can be difficult, and takes time but worth it. Starting early with a variety of good food is the best way, fruit and vegetables are very important in a family diet. Also school meals must promote healthy eating.

Last week Ponies learnt about food, fruit, vegetables and some differences between them. Children realized what kind of food they eat every day during the break time, at home and, how important is to eat healthy food in first place.
 

Today, Ponies made a delicious fruit salad. Everybody wants to peel, cut and mix the fruit, some children eat it with yogurt and others with cereals, but they really loved the activity. Hope you can do it again at home.

Always remember “Good healthy nutrition is the foundation for good behaviour”
Thanks a lot for your cooperation !!! :)
