Why Bittersweet?

The Bittersweet team has discovered a gap in the education of children’s early social development skills.This gap covers several areas in which children are experiencing trouble relating to domestic

and social situations in their daily routine.We have identified this gap to consist of several interrelated elements, which include adverse behavioral patterns in all forms of communication and an overall lack of environmental awareness.

This affects children in the immediate “now” and in the future as they develop into young adults. Left unnoticed this problem has developed into one of the most serous situations faced by everyone in today’s society.

Bittersweet aims to address these issues at a grass roots level. It does this in a two-fold manner:

• Breaking-down societal stereotypes such as sexism and racism and other adverse behavioral habits.

• Enhancing a children’s awareness of their own environment (natural and social).

We like to call this active thinking as opposed to passive thinking. This helps the child in all areas of their daily routine.
