Ekolaro

Since 2006, Cabiokid organizes EKOLARO program. During Saturdays, children of Guapito Street ranging in age from 7 to 12 yrs old gather inside Cabiokid to learn about nature while playing different Filipino games. Even the older people become young as they reminisce their childhood while observing the laughter and spirit of these children playing and enjoying the games.

Even if they are living in the countryside, they do not always realize the importance of environment and nature. Ekolaro program has goals to show them how nature can help us and how they can preserve it. Ekolaro is a form of alternative youth movement for children to learn or revisit skills, which are usually not tackled in the formal school system. The learning will tap into natural systems; focus on its importance, the care, and foremost its relevance to the Philippine culture.
