The B Elegant Center, within the Children of Future Station, presented a play titled
‘Hikayat Al Jadda Mohra’ with artistic dolls that depicts the lives of Emirati Community.

The characters of the play were grandmother, her grandchildren and friends, and the play

aimed at promoting positive behaviour among children by providing educational and
guidance messages. Furthermore, the play aimed to raise awareness on Emirati values

through a joyous, entertaining and educational manner.

Abdul Karim Shehadeh, Head of the “Children of Future Station”, said: “Through

Children of the Future Station and our strategic partners, we seek to educate children in
a fun and entertaining way and motivate them to be active learners in their communities

and families. We help children to learn through entertainment activities and sensory and

motor interaction to enhance their development in a healthy and natural way, boost their
bond with their peers, their parents and the surrounding environment. This contributes

significantly to children's social, emotional, and cognitive development, making them less

stressed, smarter, and more adaptive. The station focused on young children, who are still

forming their personalities and identities, feeling a sense of duty, and becoming aware of
the needs of others.”

In addition, Shehadeh pointed out that the station seeks to elevate the educational

process for children through a number of activities and events that focuses on their
educational and emotional experiences. These activities will allow them to acquire skills,

habits and values that support their development.
