Learning about trust


This week our class was about ‘trust’.
I first asked the kids which was their favourite pet. Because a pet trusts us, he expects us to feed them for example. And we trust them, we don’t expect them to attack or hurt us.
After that I suggest a partner exercise called ‘Open Heart’ where they could experience both feelings. Trusting someone and being reliable.
In this exercise one kid was the holder, the other was the leaner.
One had to firmly hold the partner’s wrists. He had to be reliable for his friend.
The other had to lean forwards and open his heart. He had to trust his friend.
Everybody did it and it was a lot of fun.
