The Great Red Wall has always been there. But Little Mouse’s friends
did not know why that wall was there. Nor did they know what was beyond the
wall. All they knew was that they were terrified of the wall.
Will he find the courage to explore the unknown? Will he be able to
take that first step into the world where freedom and possibilities await him?

We were living an ordinary day at school. The principal suddenly
entered the classroom. He said that every class has a president and we
urgently need to elect a class president. We would choose the class president
with a vote. I wonder which game would determine the presidential election?
Is there a winner in every game? Can every winner become president? Is there
a link between winning and being strong? Can every strong one be president?
He won the game and became president, and everything started after that.
What happened? I do not know him, we will decide on the workshop. We
welcome every child to the tail-snatching workshop, designed for children
aged 7 to 8, considering the concepts of justice and peer bullying.

Who does not know the story of Pinocchio written in Italian in 1883 by
Carlo Collodi. We come back today with a simplified version of the original
one where the two manipulative actors play the characters of Pinocchio with
different puppets. One fine day, our old man was making a wooden puppet
while his assistant, a young lady who was just beginning to accompany him
in his work, offered a doll with a small plastic nose. The cunning old man lured
the young assistant in his game and set up obstacles on Pinocchio’s path to
recite and recall the sure values as well as the keys to the success of each of
us such as the importance of work, honesty, determination... and the show
continues.

In the game, a person who is alone is asked why his friends may have
moved away from him. With the answers received, the framework of the story
character is established, and the story takes shape. Children’s answers focus
on negative behaviors such as rude behavior, lying, whining, and selfishness.
Thus, these behaviors and their consequences form the theme of the game.
Children become part of the game, influencing how the story might progress
and adding examples from their own life to the story. The power to change the
game makes you feel the power to change your life.
