I love creating crafts. Paper crafts to be precise. This is something I learnt about myself not too long ago. A wonderful book called 'Roots and Wings' written by Raksha Bharada inspired me to do that. With all wonderful ideas packed in my kitty, my good friend Priyadarshini and I decided to wear our 'creative hats' and off we set our ball rolling....
We kickstarted these classes @ my house in Senkgang (north-east part of Singapore) for the june 2010 holidays! And gosh, what an experience it was....... The workshop was targeted for kids aged 4 - 10 yr olds and the theme was 'paper crafts.' We also danced, made sandwiches, told stories and played puzzles over a period of two weeks! We created pom poms, paperchains,watermelon baskets, lanterns, flower, ballon paper marche, paper marche penstands, greeting cards, pinwheels, glitter slippers, wall decor items and a host of origami items. Simple and fun activities to keep young minds occupied.
The kids enjoyed themselves to the tee. Priyadarshini and I were truly, creatively satisfied and the workshop eventually led me to create my own blog......For me it was therapeutic experience. To see the kids engrossed and lost in their artwork as if deep,deep in meditation.
