Daily, we educators feel that many children increasingly need support to make harmonious coexistence and a positive atmosphere even possible. The children show us in daily practice that heart education is a basic prerequisite for learning.
Social learning is therefore a great concern for many of us, and much time is spent on conversations, games, and community rituals to promote togetherness and reduce aggression, for conflict resolution rituals, relaxation exercises, and stories about being different that are intended to foster children's tolerance.
The children love the little, lovable Oups. He gently guides them on the path to peaceful coexistence and opens children's hearts. The children are particularly proud when they are allowed to draw and write in their own Oups workbook.
Look how many treasures we share!
Every person wishes for peace in this world. Every child wishes for peace, and yet there is so much conflict - not only out in the big wide world but unfortunately also at home, in the family, at school...
The first step on the path to more love in our world begins with ourselves. And so, "Heart Education with Oups" also begins with recognizing one's own strengths and accepting one's own weaknesses - with discovering and appreciating one's own uniqueness.
And there is space for all of this in the lovingly designed workbook.
For teaching, there is now a quite extensive range of resources that can support you in your heart education. Everything you need for this can be found in this blog post (insight into the teaching materials) at a glance.
