I want to share what happens on another desk of min- in the art room of the
These beautiful children, in state custody have experienced abuse, abandonment and neglect.
Art time heals, comforts, bring joy, healthy challenge and smiles and color into their lives.
Huge shout out to The Home for allowing me the opportunity to serve our children.
and
To Suzanne Cannon of Quietfire Design for sharing her gifts with us!
We made Easter rings!
I cut a
kaleidoscope of butterflies, flock of sheep and chicks,and a herd of bunnies.
I can't show you their faces...
Every adult who has found happiness and peace in their lives after childhood trauma says there was one person who made a difference in their lives.
Could you be that person?
I pray that I am.
Thanks for visiting and inviting me to your place!

What a lovely idea something any child can do and be proud of it. Remember when I went working at Heshima in Tanzania I hard boiled eggs galore, bought some paints and brushes and let the kids loose. They had a really great time and also had either food or a memory to take home with them.Suspect many had eaten the egg before reaching home though. Keep up the good work. Anickoana #7

Have a great day,

Hi Robyn, what a wonderful thing to be doing. I'm pretty certain you are indeed making a huge contribution to their lives, long may you continue. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #5 XxXx
How lovely to share your art with children who could use a little bit of fun in their lives. I know that an art teacher really helped middle son get through middle school. I think he would have dropped out if not for her. She let him take double art lessons and go to her room if he was having trouble with bullies in school. She really saved him.
Happy WOYWW

thanks for sharing Sharon. I had the same experience, myself in school! Grateful for that teacher in your sons life!
that is so very sweet, I bet those kids had a blast Robyn. :) ~Stacy #42
yeah traumatised Kids make for traumatised adults, I do hope each one has a saviour, but a lot do not, hence the mess we find in our world... much harder to work with the adult who was never allowed to be a child...You will, for sure make the difference, to those you are able to support, and I hope more places like this open up rather than close down in the coming years, much love Dxxx #43
Great work with the children - I'm sure they all loved it!
