I am conducting a Summer Camp for children of Sneh Sadan. There are 30 students in this home , the age is ranging from 6-15 years. They understand English (otherwise with my Language Barrier this would not have been possible) . Two MindTree minds have shown interest, but more help is definetly required. This would be a great oppurtunity for you to give back something to the system !! . It could be as simple as 2 hours on a particular day !!

Arise
Context: I am organizing a summer camp for the children of Sneh Sadan (off Bannerghatta Road). The returns in conducting any program with children has so much returns that to put a dollar value to the ROI is simply not possible.
So are you interested in spending time with these children and to make your time count?
On 8th March 2009 I conducted my first workshop with the permission of Father Roy in the premisis of the Sneh Sadan. There are currently 30 children here for whom this is their home.
We divide the group into three batches, each class one hour and the agenda was
Group 1: Ages 6-10 years
· Ice Breakers: Spinning the Top
· Book Appreciation: Book of Buildings around the world
· Building Tallest Tower (Using Jenga Blocks)
Group 2: Ages 10-13 years
· Ice Breakers: Spinning the Top
· Book Appreciation: Book of Buildings around the world
· Building Tallest Tower (Using Jenga Blocks)
· Implementing their own design (House/Apartment/Church/Monument etc)
Group 3: Ages 13-15 years
· Ice Breakers: Number 1- 50
· Book Appreciation: Book of Buildings around the world
· Implementing their own design (House/Apartment/Church/Monument etc)
· Team Building Game : Tap Tap
The children seemed to enjoy the games and said they are looking forward to the full fledge summer camp. I was completely exhausted by the end of it but did enjoy playing with the children. I plan to conduct these introductory playing sessions on the remaining Sundays of the month of March. Summer Camp is scheduled to start in the first week of April.
The Agenda of the camp would include (5 days a week, 1 hour a day, 3 batches)
Team Games
Individual Motivation Games
