Two years ago, a primary school in Saskatoon, Canada, found a simple and economical formula to reduce the episodes of loneliness and bullying in school and to encourage the integration of students. Simply installed in the yard the buddy bench. It is a green metallic bench located in a very visible part of the yard and with very simple rules: any boy or girl who does not have anyone to play with or who wants to make new friends can sit down, and quickly someone will approach him to propose that participate in their games.<\/p>\n

In just two years, the results have been so positive that they have become enormously popular, to the point that they are present in more than 2,000 schools in the United States and Canada. There are also those who have seen a good business opportunity and have started to market them with all kinds of formats and prices.<\/p>\n
