March 14th - 2016

Joan.

Playtime is the best!        

Even though there are always chores to be done and homework to be studied, I think Saturday is the day that the kids like the most. First of all there is a bit of a sleep in as the generator doesn’t roar to life until 6 a.m. instead of 5:30. You get to wear what you like and there is lots of time for play.

The kids like to spend time coloring together, or painting, or doing a craft. There is always someone kicking a soccer ball or hanging out on the swings. When the older ones have their computer class the younger ones are playing with the smaller toys kept at Mama’s house so all the bits don’t get lost. And at the end of the day, everyone enjoys a cool walk along the canal and a stop at the “playground” under the mango trees.

I agree Joan, Saturday is a great day! When I worked it was a great day for me too! Love seeing them painting, coloring, doing puzzles and playing with all those little animals. What joy for them and for you as you watch, knowing how blessed they are to have a home at HATS or all these things would be unknown to them. Keep up the good work. Keith must be a great or fierce (haha) computer teacher...they all look so serious and like they are concentrating so hard. I don't think the words Keith and fierce go together though... so he is a great teacher! Who takes the computer class when Keith leaves, Mike?? Nicki??
