Closing the "readiness gap" for Kindergarten includes many aspects. Faity tales are an important component in that regard for development of children in their formative years. They teach children to make good decisions, they teach them right from wrong, they help develop critical thinking, and build vocabulary.
Unfortunately, for the most part they have been eliminated from Pre-K and Kindergarten language arts curricula.
The goal of KinderPlace is to make those fairy tales available to parents and educators free of charge.
Since kids are influenced through animation, we seek to have as many as possible animated in 2D.
They will become an integral part of the "Ready, Set, Go!" program of KinderPlace and will be accessible on the www.Kinder-Place.org website along with activities and guidance.
Thank you in advance for considering this worthy cause.

Locally-led non-profits and the communities involved have the expertise and knowledge to tackle the social injustices in their local setting. These NGOs are the first to respond, last to leave, and are responsible for 70% of all impact in development cooperation. However, they directly receive only 2% of the total global aid budget.
Imagine how much impact can be made, if locally-led NGOs would receive more than this marginal 2%! That is exactly our ambition!

Help us to promote iMPACT direct or one of the projects in your network in Kenya or abroad: https://impactdirect.eu/project/

We have brochures, website, socials, mailings present.
Let's brainstorm on what works best. For example, invite people to a presentation of one of our NGOs. Or sending a mailing around. Or you may have this other great promotion idea, that we can support, to jointly support the locally-led NGOs we are working for.

In turn, they work for people living below the poverty line in their communities, offering local sustainable solutions on income, food security & climate, and education. Currently we have reached 10,000 people in 5 African countries. In 2023, we aim to reach out to 15,000 people.

""A recent study of 20,000 people published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that people who spend at least 120 minutes per week - that’s about 18 minutes a day - in nature are far more likely to report being in good health and having higher psychological well-being, as compared to those who don’t embrace nature. People who spent some time in nature, but fewer than 120 minutes a week, ""were no more likely to report good health or high well-being than those who reported 0 minutes,"" the study authors found.""

120 Minutes per week in nature is also geo-locateable on phones. Have you gotten your 120 minutes a week at medium edose nature, or 90 minutes a day of high dose nature?

That is determinable by if your smart phone shows you in the park for how many minutes.

 

We aim to build an app that counts how many minutes in nature each week you have spent and reporting that back to the person. This is like step counts, but based on time in nature as walks through non-parks don’t count for the nature counter.

Nature benefits we're communicating:
Performance on backwards digit-span (a cognitively demanding task that requires directed attention/requires the person to block out irrelevant stimuli and focus) significantly improved while walking in nature Maintain the focus staring at something on paper better during and after a walk in nature. The ability to focus was not only recuperated by nature, but was even better compared to before going out into nature. A faster and more stable pattern of responding on the Attention Network Task Cognitive performance especially for self-perceived affect was found to improve significantly more after nature interactions compared to urban interactions. Overall, BDS ( backwards digit span) performance improved on average by 0.75 (SD = 2.11) points from pre- to post-nature interactions and 0.29 (SD = 2.19) BDS points from pre- to post urban environment interactions. Reduce the population prevalence of depression and high blood pressure by up to 7% and 9% respectively. A lower rates of depression and of high blood pressure. 3.9% decrease in pulse rate. Systolic blood pressure was lower (1.9% decrease).
