The "Art of Respect" Week 1 What a good start!


Smiles and some hurrays from the kids of Vila Dias, after our explanation of the art project. To be honest the hurrays where especially after telling we would have a party at the end. But the smiles kept on being on their faces while playing the game: "know your team". A game to practice already to work in a team. And to talk with them about the subject: respect. One group was pretty enthusiastic and wanted to play the game twice! What a fun it was! We could see that the subject respect is not so easy to put in practice for everyone. How do you do this when you were not teached at home, how to do this. So we are challenged to show some love and patience when we helping them to practice this during our project. With this blog some pictures so you can catch a little of the atmosphere!

The children on wednesday and thursday are going to make the paintings. 

On friday we make the decorations for the party we will have at the end, the first of november. The children did enjoy this so much, as you can see on the pictures.
How proud they where, with showing the decorations to the other children.
In the picture top left, you see papers with different words. One of the girls wrote them. It showed me that they are really thinking about the topic we have. She wrote: respect, peace, trust, honesty, friendship, happiness. And with this papers she made the decorations! Wow! with these words you can truly decorate a party, and what a joy it brings to have these "decorations" in our lifes!



We are also really happy to share with you, that all the money we needed for this project is given to us. Thanks so much for everybody who is involved. Also in praying and showing interest in our project! Big thanks on behalve of the children of Vila Dias!
