summer fun!!!

I know what we did this summer!

If being a celebrity is a thing to be herald with, I'm with Angelina Jolie and George Clooney who with great passion used their statuses to enrich the lives of the people who surround them. In the same parlance, I am not a spec of whatever popularity they have now but it is in every heart that we all desire to help out and share whatever blessings we have.

I remember when I was 10, my brother and I enrolled in a summer art class. We took up painting and sculpture. For two months, we enjoyed learning the basics of painting and techniques in  clay sculpture. 

Now, after 15 years, I am so happy to passing the torch to all the kids in my father's barrio. 

We called it ---
Summer workshop

2nd day: cactus making
2nd week: paper mache and bird's head designing


face painting during the culmination & socialization day

musical chair game during the socialization day

kids feasted on hotdog sandwich and fruit juices
1st day: talking to kids

newspaper dance

1st day: name tags made from their own traced hand on cardboard


inside the Daycare Center

4th day: Frog making from cut-circles

more frogs :-)

5th day: cup designing

kids in action

starting with the paper mache

almost finishing the head 

The whole workshop became successful with the help of my friends who sent art materials for the kids. 

To Joanah Micah Eufemio (@jmicaah) & her freinds at Malacanang, Twiteroso Guy(@Ttiterosobuy) and Merflod Enderez (@nhemerf) --- You guys ROCK!

And to my brother Steve, cousins Bea, Jinen and Champ, thanks a lot. 

Now, this is just the first step. We are considering on giving teh Daycare center a face-lift and provide a mini library. It is the same center that received me 22 years ago and who knows a better kid will come out from the same room.
