You Want Proves? Get Them!

I know, a lot of people always want proves. No matter what's the statement is - it should be checked, corrected and proved and only then being ready for trust. My SocialMedia4SocialChange campaign is creating special natural parks for children, which gives them the opportunity to play and develop safely there or volunteering in such parks that already exist. The goal is simple - make connections between children and nature, connection that was so natural few decades ago, but nowadays is mostly lost among the great variety and constant development of computers, social media and honestly laziness :)

That's why this wonderful idea came up to my mind! However, as was mentioned above, people always need proves. It's absolutely understood. Who would trust the poor sixteen year-old exchange student? Who would donate or help somehow? Very few people, truly, if any. That is why I found a couple of interesting and fascinating books about children and nature. After reading them, most likely, people would be able to understand that this is a real problem. And, maybe, someone will be interested in this idea and would help children and me. Thank you all very much!

Nature Network :)

You couldn't believe it, but tonight, while I was searching some information for my SosialMedia4SocialChange Campaign I found an absolutely fascinating and fantastic network, which completely reflects my idea of building natural parks for children and creating a world where every child can play, learn and grow in nature. It's simply called "Children & Nature Network."

On this site you can observe that people already created 117 regional campaigns, 174 natural clubs for families and they've got more than 900 coming events connecting with developing "loving nature features" in the children...!!! At once, you can sign up for this, donate something for the kids or connect, which is join the community :)

Moreover, there is a very interesting site page, with the name "NatureStory." There you can find real stories about animals, plants, and wild places told by parents or even CHILDREN themselves. This section of the site was created to help us enrich our nature discovery with old and new stories...ENJOY AND FOLLOW THE LINKS BELOW :)

Important Trifle

         

You may be on the carnival in Brazil...you may be studying in the United Kingdom...farming in India...fighting in Serbia...or just living in the United States without paying attention on the trifles that are happening in other countries across the ocean...

Of course, a new Ukrainian amusement park may sound as a "trifle" for the First-World countries, but not for Ukrainians. What am I talking about? A NEW GORGEOUS NATURAL AND AMUSEMENT PARK HAS BEEN OPENED IN UKRAINE!!! It's name is "The Gorky Park" and it was named after an outstanding poet and writer Maxim Gorky.

Now you shouldn't worry about your dearest children - they will have over 130 acres of closed land to play safely and develop together with other toddlers. I personally have been in this park with my little brothers and as soon as we passed the park borders they felt happiness without alloy! Kids can amuse themselves to their heart's content while their parents can have a wonderful Ukrainian dinner at one of the cafes&restaurants. The park is surrounded with beautiful evergreen trees and flowers.

This is the example of our goal - parks in our home communities. You may read this blog and then push the "next blog" button...but what I really ask for is just a thought. Think about the Children... Think about "the flowers of life"... Think about our future... Think.

Thank you all very much.

Why should they not leave their kids at the park?

My social issue for social change is creating special natural parks for the children (gives them the opportunity to play and develop with other kids there) whose parents cannot take care of them 24/7 or volunteering at such parks that already exist. There are plenty of those, if only search in the internet or ask friends, relatives about them.

 I was thinking about it, reading one story on the site and suddenly I understood why such parks, which is honestly worthy idea, are not very popular and common till now. Guess why? Because some of parents would rather quit their jobs and look after kids than letting them be learn how to be independent from the childhood and play with others. Why you should they not leave their kids at the park? Here I am not talking about just-born kids, or toddlers but children 6-7 years, who can stand for themselves in front of other kids their age and improve their own personality.

The link below completely reflects my opinion:
