A Reminder
If there is one thing that working with the first group of kids taking part in Song Flight has taught me, it’s that words matter less than the experiences. Despite technical and language challenges we encountered, the kids and I managed to communicate beautifully.
We’ve shared stories, drawings, and songs. We’ve practiced mindful breathing, hummed like bees, and laughed at our mistakes. It’s been a lovely reminder that human beings are trial and error learners whose well-being depends on embracing the lifelong learning process. As the kids put it, “If we’re perfect, it’s BOOOORING!”
*Many thanks to Nataliia Solovieff, the brilliant teacher whose kindness, patience, and expert translations helped us navigate any and all communication issues.
The Importance of Feelings
One of the main goals of Song Flight is helping kids become self-aware - aware of their thought and feelings and how those thoughts and feelings impact the world around them. It is by developing this awareness that children learn to appreciate differences, empathize with others, and learn to care for other creatures and the planet.
In the end, isn’t that what we all want - to raise children who know and love themselves and will become compassionate stewards of one another and the planet? Our future quite literally rests in their hands.

Wrapping Up and Sharing the Fun
This first Song Flight pilot will wrap up next week (March 13th). We will hatch our Super Power eggs, write a message to send to the next group of kids taking part in Song Flight, and choose a bird to represent us.
