Last week, The Thoughtful Path project launched an initiative for grannies in the Munsieville township to read stories to the youngest members of the community, to stimulate the children and help them to develop.
Often pre-school children in Munsieville attend a creche for 10 to 12 hours a day, usually in a tin shack with a dirt floor and few, if any, toys, books or play equipment. The Early Childhood Development service unit of the Thoughtful Path is working to transform pre-school care for these children by training carers and setting up new ECD centres with improved facilities. This new story-telling initiative will use the experiences of the older members of the community to help entertain the children and build links between the generations.
Read more here about the Thoughtful Path and how you can partner with us to establish new ECD centres and change the lives of children in Munsieville forever.
