The new life of toys that teach children about solidarity
Being able to sensitize children to socially useful activities represents a great opportunity for their life. In fact, from the first years of their existence, children are able to understand the value of a gesture considered "good" and altruistic, and this ability deserves to be appropriately stimulated.
Too often there is a fear of overloading children by demanding an excess of responsibility from them, while in reality they are perfectly capable of understanding that carrying out a "solidarity action is a choice that will make them better people."
In this way, we are also laying the foundations for raising adult people with greater open-mindedness and who are likely to build a better world and future.
It is important to put aside the belief that children would not be able to be socially empathic and supportive: otherwise there is the risk of underestimating and underestimating their enormous potential.
An excellent tool for transmitting these values can be represented by the game: through the playful approach it is possible to explain many things to children, moreover it is also the best way to ensure that what is taught sediments in their little heads and you know that what you sowing young ... will thus have time to develop over the years, consolidating beautiful feelings, which deserve to be cultivated and encouraged by adults.

The collected toys will contribute to the creation of recreational opportunities within the hospitals, which will help the little ones to feel a little more at home and perhaps they will also be able to return some smiles to allow them to live the hospitalization more peacefully and to face with greater positivity. the path of healing.
A further contribution in economic terms will also be offered by Duracell, which will pay 5 Euros for each toy donated.
