The project is starting tomorrow at Wix primary school, it is all very exciting, the fake dolly bus stop must be delivered to the school tomorrow too. It is going to be difficult to explain the project to 8 years old children. In fact, I have tried already with my son and showed him the picture with the feelings. I asked him, so what do you think of this picture? what does it say to you? He looked at me speechless and say 'I don't understand anything you are saying!'.... promising.
Perhaps this is a start, we can talk about the things that they actually don't understand.
Could it be that children do not live the emotions as we do and that taking the bus to be connected with its own emotions may seem roundabout means according to their way of feelings ?

Hello AS, well I thought indeed that children would find it hard to detach themselves from their emotions but in fact they got it straight away to my surprise! It was easier for the chldren to travel to the country of Love than it was for the teacher.
