        "content": "<p>BEKASI \u2013 The development of digital technology is creating\nopportunities for children to learn through interactive content beyond\nthe classroom. This approach was introduced to students at Al-Hidayah\nNurul Ummah Islamic boarding school in Jatiasih, Bekasi, through\nlearning activities based on games and educational content.<\/p>\n<p>The event, titled SHOW Kids x Giggle Academy Goes to School, was held\non Wednesday (7 October 2026). The collaboration between SHOW Kids and\nGiggle Academy invited students to take part in a range of learning\nactivities using a fun-learning approach.<\/p>\n<p>The approach combines educational games, direct interaction and\nmaterial relevant to children\u2019s everyday lives. The activities\nintroduced participants to a way of learning that does not rely solely\non the formal delivery of lessons.<\/p>\n<p>The two organisers also focused on the use of digital content in\nchildren\u2019s education. As children become increasingly familiar with\ndigital devices, they need content that not only entertains but also\ndevelops their knowledge, creativity and curiosity.<\/p>\n<p>SHOW Chief Executive Officer Akshay Melwani said entertainment and\neducation could be developed together. He said engaging learning\nmaterials could help children build good learning habits from an early\nage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe learning should be an enjoyable experience. Children\ndeserve content that not only entertains but also nurtures curiosity and\npositive character. Through our collaboration with Giggle Academy, we\nwant to provide educational programmes that are relevant to their\neveryday lives, including those of students at Islamic boarding schools,\nso that their enthusiasm for learning can continue to grow,\u201d Akshay\nMelwani said in a press release on Saturday (10 October 2026).<\/p>\n<p>During the event, students took part in an ice-breaking session,\neducational games and a question-and-answer session. The organisers also\nintroduced programmes and learning content developed by SHOW Kids and\nGiggle Academy.<\/p>\n<p>The activities gave participants the chance to interact, ask\nquestions and learn through games. The event also included a\nprize-giving session and a group photo.<\/p>\n<p>For Islamic boarding schools, interactive learning methods can\ncomplement existing educational activities. They provide students with\nopportunities to develop creativity and confidence in expressing\nthemselves alongside formal learning.<\/p>\n<p>SHOW Kids and Giggle Academy organised the event through their\ncorporate social responsibility (CSR) programme. The two organisations\nhope similar activities can be held in more areas, giving children more\nopportunities to take part in interactive learning beyond the\nclassroom.<\/p>",
