The teamwork done in the month of August between Asha-Kiran and a group of Spanish Volunteers consisted in bringing creative and leisure activites to our beneficiaries. One of them, the clown show, was a complete success among the children and their families. The aim of this activity was for children from the Day Care Centers at the construction sites as well as those from the slum community to laugh and have a good time.
The volunteers made everyone enjoy a visual display of comedy without the use of language, yet this was not an obstacle to convey universally funny situations. There were infants, young children, adults and elderly people in the public. Some of the infants were scared of the clowns at first but soon became comfortable with the help of the teacher and her helper.
The Volunteers stressed that it is good have surprises for the children, not only for enjoyment but also to interest them what the Centers have to offer and to encourage them to welcome new experiences.
