Klappentext
With the help of this book, children from the age of three and adults can find their own personal form of learning. The imaginary journeys are an invaluable aid for young and old alike when it comes to relaxing while learning, being fully involved, developing all intellectual, artistic and sporting skills as well as inner peace and harmony with others. Our traditional education system gives priority to children who can think logically and analytically, who can express themselves clearly and who fit into the assessment grid, which is geared towards oral, written and mathematical tasks and factual memory. Our children know much more than we give them credit for. However, hundreds of thousands of them are unlearning what they already know because we don't take their knowledge seriously. They lose their own personal learning method because, for example, some teachers believe they are cheating if they remember what they have learned too easily. For anyone who has or looks after children, and anyone who wants to rediscover the child in themselves, this book is an alternative to the poverty of everyday learning. Parents and teachers who are dissatisfied with our education system will find it just as appealing as people who want to tap into the full richness of their creativity.
