About this project

The children need a more challenging environment during their growth in order to secure optimal conditions to develop their intellectual and social abilities.
Children living in Tanzania grow up in an environment with many challenges that affect their mental, psychological and social growth. Economical factors and technological changes play a vital role in their learning (cognitive) and physical growth.
The relationship between children and parents is currently subject to many challenges. Today, adults work far from home and therefore leave their children to be looked after by inexperienced babysitters.
There is a growing trend of sending children to boarding schools. This affects not just the individual child's physical growth due to poor nutrition in these schools, but also their opportunity to grow mentally.
There are no leisure activities for children in Tanzania. The economic activities (petty trade) and housework has first priority, which means that the children will be withheld opportunities to learn new things through play and sport while growing up.
Punishment of children in schools is a sensitive issue. Officially it is forbidden! But often it happens that children from a young age will be physically punished. Such experiences make the kids to hate school, which affects their ability to learn.
At home children are subjected to verbal threats and obligations that go beyond their abilities. Such an environment creates fear and destroys self-confidence in children and with few opportunities for children to develop their abilities to be inquisitive, innovative and have an independent mindset, and it affects, therefore their capacity for independent thinking, self-awareness and the ability to exploit their natural talents.
Therefore it is important for children to have a play house (a pedagogical centre) to work independently and develop their ego under free circumstances and enlighten parents the best way to raise children free punishment.
