Children learn to care for materials, to respect each other\u2019s time, and to move within a shared space. This is not taught as an external rule, but learned through sensitive experience. In this way, a first notion of citizenship is formed: the construction of a place where everyone has a voice and a way of being.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"808\" height=\"555\" data-id=\"31404\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture8.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture8.jpg 808w, https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture8-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture8-768x528.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 808px) 100vw, 808px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"407\" height=\"416\" data-id=\"31402\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture13.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture13.jpg 407w, https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture13-294x300.jpg 294w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 407px) 100vw, 407px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"379\" height=\"432\" data-id=\"31403\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture16.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture16.jpg 379w, https:\/\/www.colegiobolivar.edu.co\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture16-263x300.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 379px) 100vw, 379px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This project celebrates art as a form of knowledge, where aesthetics, ethics, and cognition intertwine with the sensitivity of childhood. <em>The Poetics of Color<\/em> is, at its core, an invitation to inhabit the world with all the senses awakened.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the Loritos group at El Nido (2-year-olds), color is not taught\u2014it is discovered.
