Die Bright Day Foundation startet ihre erste Spendenaktion

More Blocks More Fun

Anfang dieses Jahres startete die Bright Day Foundation ihre eigene Spendenaktion für das Jahr 2020, indem sie ihre Spenden an Kindermuseen in den Vereinigten Staaten konzentrierte. Diese Kampagne, mit dem Titel Mehr Blöcke, mehr Spaß, Das Ergebnis: fast 100 Medium Block Kits wurden geschenkt, deren Wert über $35.000 US-Dollar beträgt.

David Krishock, Mitbegründer von Bright Day und Leiter der Bright Day Foundation, sagte: “Es geht nicht so sehr um den Wert des Geschenks – sondern vielmehr darum, wie viele Kinder wir durch diese Aktion unterstützt haben. Wir schätzen, dass diese geschenkten Blocks bisher fast 100.000 Kindern sowie deren Eltern und Verwandten zugutekamen.“.

Es gibt nichts Besseres als Kindern beim Spielen zu helfen – denn wenn sie spielen, haben sie nicht nur Spaß – sie lernen und entwickeln sich.”

Die Planung für diese Initiative begann im Jahr 2019, als Bright Day Big Blocks Kontakt mit Mitgliedern der Association of Children’s Museum aufnahm und sie fragte, ob sie an einer Spende des beliebten Medium Block Kits interessiert wären. “Die Zusicherung – es ist ein Geschenk aus dem Herzen, ohne irgendwelche Konditionen. Die Reaktion vieler Mitglieder der ACM war – wann können wir diese Blöcke erhalten – und das Programm konnte beginnen”, sagt Krishock.

Das Programm war umfangreich – “Ich glaube, es umfasste Orte von der Küste bis nach Kalifornien – von Vermont bis nach Kalifornien und in allen dazwischenliegenden Bundesstaaten.” Bei der Bright Day Foundation stellten wir fest, dass wir mit den Kindermuseen gute Arbeit leisten konnten, die in ländlichen Gebieten tätig sind, in Gebieten, die Menschen mit wirtschaftlichen Nachteilen helfen, und sogar mit mobilen Spielzentren, die mobil sind. Wir waren sehr stolz, mit Kindermuseen zusammenarbeiten zu dürfen, die so viel Mühe in die Betreuung ihrer Gemeinden und in die Hilfe junger Kinder, um Freude an Spielen zu finden, stecken. Die Association of Children’s Museums ist eine großartige Organisation mit fantastischen Mitgliedern – wir sind stolz darauf, mit ihnen zusammenzuarbeiten“, sagt Krishock.

Die Bright Day Foundation arbeitet an ihrem nächsten Geschenkprogramm, TitleOneDerful ™ – einem Programm, das darauf abzielt, die über 45.000 Title 1-Grundschulen in den Vereinigten Staaten zu erreichen. Details zu diesem spannenden Programm werden im Juni bekannt gegeben.

Hilft Lehrern zu lächeln

Von Presse

Bright Day spricht jeden Tag mit den Lehrern. In den letzten drei Wochen hat die Interaktion von Bright Day mit den Lehrern die Firma etwas beunruhigt. Die Lehrkräfte müssen neue Wege finden, um während dieser ungewissen Zeit Kontakt zu ihren Schülern aufrechtzuerhalten.

Laurel Tucker, Mitbegründerin von Bright Day Big Blocks, sagt: “Die Lehrer, mit denen wir gesprochen haben, sind 100% bestrebt, während dieser “Safer At Home”-Phase Kontakt zu ihren Kindern aufrechtzuerhalten und ihnen so viel wie möglich zu helfen. Wenn wir mit den Lehrern sprechen, hören wir die Sorge in ihren Stimmen. Diese beeindruckende Anstrengung der Lehrer inspiriert uns dazu, auf jede mögliche Weise zu helfen – wir alle lieben und respektieren unsere Gemeinschaft der Lehrer sehr.”

Laurel Tucker erklärt: “Grundsätzlich möchten wir versuchen, den Stress des Augenblicks etwas zu verringern – vielleicht unseren Lehrern ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zaubern – und wir glauben, dass wir dies mit einem Geschenk erreichen können.“.

”Wir produzieren gerade Tausende unserer Mini-Block-Builder-Puzzles von Bright Day – es ist ein lustiges und spannendes Spielzeug mit über 62 Mini-Blöcken, die jeder verwenden kann, um alles zu bauen, was man sich nur vorstellen kann. Wir hoffen, dass dies unseren Lehrern Entspannung und vielleicht auch ein Lächeln bringt“, sagt sie.

Um einen von Bright Day zertifizierten Mini-Block-Builder-Puzzle zu beanspruchen, besuchen Sie einfach die Bright Day Big Blocks-Website. https://brightdaybigblocks.com/contact, ”Wir erwarten, dass wir nächste Woche 5.000 Mini-Block-Builder-Puzzle im Büro haben – wir würden uns sehr freuen, wenn Lehrer aus allen Teilen der USA die Möglichkeit hätten, sich zu entspannen und zu schaffen – dieses Angebot gilt solange, bis alle letzten dieser Puzzles ein Zuhause gefunden haben.“

“Lehrerinnen und Lehrer – wir lieben Sie – bitte nehmen Sie unser Geschenk an Kreativität an”, sagt Laurel Tucker.

Wir bringen unser Spielprogramm zurück!

The time is right to bring back our beloved Gift Of Play program – we are here to help!

Over the last three weeks, we have been in touch with Educators about the closing of schools. Many have told us the “doors might be closed to the children, parents, and the community, but schools in many ways must operate as though they are open for business.” School Administrators have told us our block products are on their list of neu items to purchase before the end of the school year. They are looking for the best play and learn groß block experience for their kids – and the best price for their budgeted dollars.

Good news Educators – welcome back unsere Bright Day Big Blocks Gift Of Play program!

Gift of Play is a Bright Day Big Blocks program that rewards advocates of play-based learning. We encourage these organizations to be in touch, make us a reasonable offer for unsere blocks, and they could be theirs. We do everything we can to offer our blocks at the BEST prices of the year, at our cost. We help organizations fulfill their big-block building dreams for their children.

Bright Day Foundation Producing Film Documentary to Help Reinvent Preschool Education

Von Presse

It is 9:00 pm on Friday, January 24th and the production crew has wrapped up the final day of filming at Brooklyn Children’s Museum in New York City. This completes phase one – three months of filming, two cities and three locations. Although exhausted, the production crew is pleased with their work and they have two months before traveling overseas for more.

This film documentary project began in 2005, when Bright Day was formed, and crystallized shortly thereafter when David Krishock, Co-Founder of Bright Day began researching the where and why of better educated youngsters around the globe. At that point Mr. Krishock, a serious advocate of play based learning, decided his story had to be told in order to expedite a revolution in preschool education, a reinvention using the principles of play based learning as a foundation.

“Sorry if this sounds like an alarm bell ringing, but it is, the time is now, educators and parents are key in fueling a broad scale reinvention of early childhood development. Play based learning is quite possibly the best way for a young mind and body to grow,” states Krishock. “Our children are far too important to be relegated to an antiquated baby-sitter system. Play is the way forward,” he continues.

Bright Day began studying play based learning years ago, and began piecing together their global film project partners to assist in telling this story. These play to learn believers and innovators are located in some of the worlds top countries – partners practicing in Denmark, Japan, South Korea, England, and the United States. In the USA, where filming just wrapped, the project partners include Columbia University Teachers College, and their Hollingworth Preschool, The Brooklyn Children’s Museum, and Bay Area Discovery Museum’s, The Discovery School, outside San Francisco.

These organizations practice the principles of play based learning – which includes a child focused, child directed approach, employing theme and project based learning. Using themes chosen by children holds their interest and ongoing engagement, allowing for a natural learning process. In employing these methods there are valuable benefits for children including – enhancing communication and collaboration, improving self-expression and creativity, generating curiosity, employing experimentation, questioning and problem solving, building of self-esteem and confidence. The cognitive development resulting from play based learning helps children acquire a better conceptual understanding of math, science, reading, writing, and use of technology, better preparing them for elementary school.

From New York this film crew travels to Asia this spring to work with film project partners in Tokyo, Japan and Seoul, South Korea. This summer the crew heads to Europe, working with two partners in England and Denmark. “Without the support of our partners, without their knowledge and practice of play based learning, we would not have proof that play works best for developing young minds and bodies,” says Krishock.

The filming of this documentary will be complete in 2020, and ready for global distribution in 2021. “The sooner we can share our message, and highly engage educators and parents, the sooner we can unite our efforts to reinvent and improve. Bright Day is wholly committed to changing the system of preschool education globally – one preschool at a time,” says Krishock

In addition to Bright Day Foundation producing its film documentary, it is completing work on its play based preschool curriculum to be launched in 2020. Also, the Bright Day Big Block cooperative https://brightdaybigblocks.com is launching several new learn while you play block products this year. “Our film documentary creates awareness, while our curriculum and blocks create practice – its is our goal to provide play solutions for educators, parents and children from all directions,” says Krishock.

But, on this evening, late in January – the production crew is ecstatic over successfully capturing on film hundreds of joyful children at play – and resting up for the international phase of the documentary that promises to change the world – one preschool at a time.

Thank You to all that visited our Indiegogo page, our web site – and most of all Thank You to the 56 backers that contributed to our business accelerator campaign. Also, Thank You for the emails and phone calls of support.

We had folks that purchased our Blocks for their kids – or bought our Blocks to gift to organizations – like the THINKERY Children’s Museum in Austin, TX, the BOYS & GIRLS CLUB in Malibu, CA, CHURCHLAND ELEMENTARY in Lexington, NC – and more.

We also had cash donations – and we can assure everyone that contributed cash that each and every dollar will go to building awareness via our marketing campaigns this fall.

It’s a WIN – WIN – WIN!

For the growing number of educators that follow Bright Day Big Blocks – they know it’s a relatively new business – launched globally last November 2018, and in USA last March 2019.

In an effort to successfully launch this new company Bright Day is partnering with the popular business accelerator platform Indiegogo. Indiegogo enables Bright Day to solicit support for its innovative products by providing access to millions of people who are interested in what’s new, what’s next, what’s great in early childhood development.

The Bright Day Campaign begins on Wednesday, June 19th and runs for 60 days.  During that period the public, mostly engaged parents and early childhood educators will be given the gift of choosing from 7 outstanding products at equally outstanding discounted prices.

The entire purpose of the Bright Day / Indiegogo Campaign is to get the word out there – get the product out there – and help the kids!

Very simply we say:  US HELPING YOU HELPS EVERYONE!

Bright Day Big Blocks are offered at the lowest price ever – kids get the blocks, and as they play the learn and grow – and, we generate funds to further fuel our companies mission.

Company Co-Founders – Laurel Tucker and Dave Krishock hope that everyone that hears about the Campaign tell 4 of their friends – if so, more folks will be talking about the benefits of play – and some may just take advantage of this outstanding offer.  As Laurel Tucker said when the collaboration between indiegogo and Bright Day was created – “it’s just a great big win, win, win”!
