Here in Spain we have parents's associations to collaborate with educational community. We call them AMPAs (in plural). Sometime ago I sended to my AMPA a proposal and I would like to share it with you.
At the end of the primary school the students go on a educational journey. It's very common for students to sell some sweets for Christmas to collect some money for the trip. The problem, in my view, is that they don't involve completely in this activity. Parents do all the work.
I think this is a good opportunity to they take responsibility. I thought that children could organised a crowdfunding to pay their journey and the sweets would the rewards.
They can learn a lot of things, grow up a project, promote it, manage money... We only have to ensure that they have all their needs to their disposition.
Maybe you are freaking out but listen to me, you let them to fall down when they was learning to walk. This is the same.
