A new educational proposal: Phew and comes! Eight hiding places for finding oneself and for playing with the others
Abstract
My paper wishes to present ways to cultivate children’s self esteem and encourage them to think creatively. There are a number of initiatives which can be taken in the school environment from the social, pedagogical or the architectural point of view which can foster the harmonious relationship of children to themselves as well as to others. Initially I shall present an action organized around eight hiding places that I designed and realized in and out of the school via art. Then, I shall emphasize the importance accorded to fostering self esteem from a pedagogical and psychological viewpoint. Finally, I shall present several measures that can be taken in the school environment so that it contributes to the harmonic relationship of children to themselves as well as to others.
