News from the Storytelling-Tent from 31. August 2014 in Villmergen
The day was stormy, is if we were out at sea. Very fitting, because the theme was "pirates". The children enjoyed the adventures and stories in the cozy, dry tent.
We were invited to the games festival, that was organized by the association S+E from Villmergen. The day was windy and rainy and only thanks to the endurance and help from some of the organizers we were able to save the tent and blankets from being blown away. After two hours of work and lots of goodwill, it was possible to provide the children with a safe and cozy Storytelling-Tent. It was decorated with an ocean theme, including all of its inhabitants.
The tent filled up very quickly for every one of the three stories. The children felt comfortable in this underwater world. In the end every child was allowed to choose a seashell as a keepsake. Of course these shells were from Senegal.
A compliment to all of the visitors who didn't let the unfriendly weather get in the way of visiting us at this event. A big thank you to the association S+E for the invitation to their event and for all of their help in setting up and securing the tent. Also a heartfelt thank you for all the donations and to all of the visitors for their interest in our work. The donations will go directly to our project "kindergardens4senegal".
