Dear friends and visitors to the blog Mampato generation after weeks of absence, I turn this space with two contributions that Alicia sent me, our faithful friend of the magazine Cabrochico. This time, we do get the numbers 37 and 38. In the first we see a cover drawn by Nestor and the second, a picture of Khalid.
As usual, both numbers bring entertaining stories for children in the house. But also are very interesting articles for parents, such as adult supplement that comes in at number 37 and where they can learn to make a jacket and wool trousers for children. It is true that today is less common that when we were kids but do not know how to make one more Who had no wool pants as a kid? And obviously that the vests were also woven by the mother, aunt or grandmother. For the months of harsh winter of those years were items essential for a child.
Well, we also learn the importance of sport in the health of children and adults can learn the experience of workers in the El Teniente mine who learned to make clay pots and other similar crafts. The number 38 will learn how to make a nice bed down, also designed for those winter days when you step on the floor of the bedroom can be very unpleasant.
In these two numbers is a section about the trades and professions that children can follow when they grow up. In a work described coal miner and the other of the gásfiter or teacher. Of course, in a magazine like Cabrochico where children can learn to value human labor in its various expressions, is part of the principles that guided the journal as well. In addition, under the political and cultural project that ascribed the magazine was understandable to see such efforts as alternatives to self-realization also for children at the time.
Anyway, hope you enjoy these two new magazines that Alicia sent us. She scans thinking who value a treasure like this. Thank you for your selfless work.
