Children are the flame of the future and their relationships with the world around them are shaped by their experiences.
When we take them to markets or airports and they find places designated for them or things they are interested in, they feel their value and importance in society, and this also enhances their sense of belonging.
It is very important that book fairs have special pavilions for children, because these pavilions make the child realize that he has a place similar to him, and that he can interact with it with comfort and freedom, thus fulfilling his needs in the world of adults, which he sometimes finds difficult to understand.
Allocating such places contributes to creating a sound orientation and a positive relationship between the child and reading in particular and knowledge in general.
When we deal with children, we find that play is their world and their main concern through which they understand the world around them. If you want to make them accept knowledge and learning, mix it with fun and play.
In the Children's Corner, we read stories, children meet their authors, and we turn them into plays. This is of great importance. Dramatizing stories brings the paper book to life and transforms it into a lived reality for the child.
Converting paper books into movies or even cartoons and then showing them together to the child makes him realize new and different dimensions about the role and importance of books in his world.
It's also important that these spaces be used to provide knowledge, including an area for free reading, an area for cognitive activities derived from books, and artistic and scientific activities inspired by or extracted from book characters, especially since children love colors. It's possible to organize workshops and activities for children.
Developing the spirit of participation and community through a large painting in which all young visitors to the exhibition participate, for example, they can make it from old books or magazines.
The child also writes his own story. We create a writing workshop and teach him the basics of writing. He sees authors and publishers at the exhibition, which motivates him to write his own book.
It is possible to hold an exhibition where children can see examples written by their peers, whether published or unpublished.
Likewise, hymns and poems are beautiful arts that children need to hear.
Children are an integral part of society and they are the future. Bridges of connection between them and knowledge must be built early to build a bright tomorrow.
