At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
World Values Day (WVD) is celebrated all around the world. This day is organized by the UK Values Alliance. On WVD, all through October, there will be celebrations. Our social lives are critical to our health and wellbeing. WVD's mission is to put principles at the center of society worldwide. The goal is to enhance global awareness of values and to emphasize the critical role that values play in the well-being of families, individuals, businesses, schools, and communities. There seems to be substantial growth in the number of schools involved in the UK.
World Values Day is observed by people all around the world to raise consciousness and practice values.
In 2016, World Values Day was created as a yearly event.
The UK Values Alliance founded World Values Day. In addition, the UK Values Alliance collaborated with other organizations to plan campaign activities and events.
Let us now check out the history behind this day.
Values are conceptual constructs and ideas, that either present a vision of how we want the universe to be (goals) or emphasize specific ways of doing things to achieve those objectives (means). We have the option to put our principles into action when we engage in conversation, whether one-on-one or in a group, online or face-to-face. Honesty, trust, respect, listening, integrity, constructive disagreement, expressing the truth, and the quest for truth are just a few of the values that can be communicated through conversation. The majority of us share these or comparable beliefs, yet only a tiny percentage of us practice them in our daily interactions. Organizations worldwide are participating in the Values Break or the Values Challenge which is geared toward larger groups.
There's a range of methods to support this day. Choose a value that is important to you, one that motivates and leads you through life. Then, consider an individual or organization that holds that value and works on it to help support this day. On World Values Day, express your appreciation for their deeds by identifying and praising them on social media. Take a look at some books about values. People can find various ideas and resources on the World Values Day website to arrange their activities and events.
Dr. Neil Hawkes, who is one of the WVD supporters, has worked diligently with both the community and the school as the Principal at Kidlington Primary and Nursery School to develop and execute a unique structure of values-based learning which has since been widely recognized as the basis for excellent school practice.
David Gurteen who had partnered along with the UK Values Alliance on World Values Day is a keynote speaker, conversational facilitator, and writer.
Over 111 schools, companies, and community groups worldwide have joined up for the Values Challenge developed by the UK Values Alliance.
The annual World Values Day initiative, which takes place in October of every year, aims to raise global awareness and practice of values.
Kindness, working towards a better world and society, spirituality, parent-child relationships, environmental views, the well-being of yourself and others and more can be some of the examples of world values. These values vary from person to person as each person can have similar values but prioritize them in a different order.
Family, friends, work, religion, politics, and leisure time are some of the values people prioritize.
In 2016, the UK Values Alliance founded World Values Day as a yearly movement. At the same time, the UK Values Alliance continues to be the driving force behind World Values Day. It does so in partnership, including over a hundred other like-minded organizations worldwide that assist and support the cause.
