6 changes to a new way of educating

We are witnessing a new way of educating and changes are beginning to be noticed among children. These still incipient behavioral changes are identified in the Behavior change report in Spain prepared annually by the research and strategy consultancy Labrand Brand Psychology.

The causes, according to the researchers, point to overcome the frivolous consumerism of economic boom times, today's parents opt for responsible consumption, give greater value to things, incorporate new values ​​of proximity and solidarity, and seek the Personal growth through the development of talent and creativity that we all have inside. It is a new way of looking at life that is transmitted in education to children.


Among the most important changes seen in children is the learning of the value of things, the importance of effort, the gain of responsibility through the teaching of "no" and the empowerment of one's own initiative.

For their part, parents dedicate their effort in education to set limits, to teach how to fit the "no", to promote responsible consumption, the culture of play and sharing and, in general, to assume their own responsibilities. More and more parents are looking for educational formulas to enhance attitude, initiative, knowledge of emotions and autonomy.

The main changes in children that are identified in the Behavior change report in Spain are these:


1. Children closer to reality. A survey by Adecco shows that Spanish children reject politicians.
2. New educational currents. Educators and pedagogues seek the reflection of the students and promote their critical spirit.
3. Children with values. The dissemination of values ​​such as peace, equality and respect for the environment is being reflected in activities and workshops for children that combine outdoor education with classes, ecological school gardens and workshops on healthy living.
4. Curiosity to power. Various initiatives encourage curiosity as a basis for developing one's own talent.
5. Live sharing. More and more centers that make parenting work as a team, involving parents together with educators.
6. Share with family. Free time is to be together and more and more there is an offer that allows this to be possible. The restaurants with infrastructure and services for children (paintings, children's area, entertainers ...) are gaining ground. Likewise, more and more stores are being made family friendly and choose to incorporate a corner with tables, chairs and media for children to enjoy while the parents make the purchase.
