We will...We will..Rock You!!! What a creation this song was! Like he says in the video when everyone comes in the unison, what a magic we can create. It just takes one thought, one action, one initiative, one get together to start something unusual. Let us come together and recreate the magic of our community. 

Since 14 years I have been part of this wonderful Giggles community. My intention is that we all co-create this learning community. A community where we all are growing together and learning together, where we all are teaching and challenging each other, where we all are celebrating our failures and mistakes, where we all come together to create and support each other and and much more. 

Once you are part of Giggles you are always part of Giggles. You are participating sometimes... Sometimes you can't.. When you can participate you are there 100 %.... When u can't participate you are there 100%😃.

 Love,
Pineapple 🍍

Games are one way to build connection...it happens instantly even among the strangers.  Usually when children come to a session there is a readymade curriculum/list of activities which are planned. We had not planned any curriculum. We discussed and co created with children. We decided what to do this week.  The task was they had to list 5 things that they want to do and then convince others…. Sell their ideas to the whole group. Somehow we adults think we know more or we can plan better. We were surprised (as always) with the varied list of things children wanted to do. There was nothing stopping them…. even the barriers of having the session online. The list included Jokes, share knowledge, talk about likes/dislikes, drawing, play, dance, online games, craft, games, make your games, Craft, own crea...
