These are some of our payasos (clowns) working with young children in the plaza of their pueblo in San Pedro.
The other photo is of one of our teachers working with children in the plazuela at Santa Ana, close to where I live.
The teachers do Brain Gym activities in the schools. The clowns reach younger children in the parks of their pueblos with preschool concepts (colors, numbers, and the Brain Gym activities of Pedagogia Basica) to help these children succeed when they begin to attend school.
Reports have said that 30% of children fail the first grade because of lack of early stimulation. We'll do what we can. To volunteer with us, see www.idealist.org.
