Did you know that they are so sweet that when Odysseus tried them for the first time he almost forgot to go back to Ithaca? my father says as he gives my oldest daughter a piece of lotus. – Honey, you should eat this fruit, it’s so tasty. (those orange, circular fruits that look a bit like oranges and are supposed to be very sweet.) Just some hours ago, my parents were trying to convince my children to eat some lotus fruits. Now, to be honest, born and raised 100% in Greece, I am obviously very much affected by the Greek culture and by all Greek myths (yes, I admit it you can easily call me a biased.) Well, simply put, Greek myths are a great way (if not the greatest) to introduce Values and High Ideals to our children. How is this introduction related to my title for this blog post, the importance of Greek Mythology in today’s education? I also believe we should re-invent fun, entertaining, interactive ways to teach Values and to pass on moral lessons to our children. My logic and my instincts tell me that nowadays, this is the need of the hour, for the good of our children and our planet in general. I started this blog which later on turned into an e-shop because I believe in Values Based Education. Hello, I am Efstathia and I come from Greece.
