The holiday season is an opportunity for schools to discuss issues related to giving back, but also the search for elements that unite people. This action was inspired by the children's book "3 cats and a wish" where the heroes of the fairy tale looked in the sky to find a shooting star and shared a common wish, to remain friends forever.

The purpose of this activity is for students to decode specific paths (or create their own) with unplugged activities or the use of robotic equipment, with the goal of locating where the star is hiding and making a wish for a better future.
