That is great news! I don't think it would fly in America, and you'd get the same silly reactions in the comments section here. I'm not surprised at the article, it is a very good idea, but what amazes me is the thick heads the adults commenting on the article have!

They think their six year-olds should be learning about circles and squares for six and a half hours a day?! This is a wonderful use of time... You can't get it at home, maybe with siblings, but that is another dynamic.

This teaches cooperation, and develops social awareness, and responsibility. Probably also teamwork. Whatever that is :) I might not have learned it :)

After all, touch is very good for you. People think it is outrageous, THEY are outrageous.
