OUR GLOBAL PEN PAL PROGRAM:
“Now I know yoU”
USE SINGING, DANCING AND FUN TO make friends with KIDS in other countries
All Around This World and Empatico.org present an one-of-a-kind "Musical Pen Pal Program" program that connects kids of any age across borders through the joyful sharing of cultural songs, dances and holidays.
The Empatico Musical Pen Pal Program in Partnership with All Around This World (which AATW has in the past referred to as “Now I Know You”) matches your school with a school on another continent for celebratory cultural exchanges. Your kids meet other kids of their age online by exchanging videos, presenting songs, teaching dances and celebrating holidays, inviting their new friends to sing, dance and celebrate along. You and your partners may guide the connection, but each month All Around This World/Empatico sends project ideas and provide opportunities for sharing within your matched group or with “Musical Pen Pal” kids worldwide.
Registration for the first round of Musical Pen Pal programming has officially closed (there are 50 schools in the program representing 18 countries!)…but if you’re interested in joining, contact us! We’ll put you on the waiting list and let you know when there is a spot.
CONTACT ALL AROUND THIS WORLD to learn more and get on the list.
And, definitely ask about the wonderful "NOW I KNOW” YOU PILOT PROGRAM in 2021-’22 that matched three classrooms -- one in the U.S., one in the Wales, and one in Uganda. Great stuff!
