Weekend Special Activity, Collaboration with Forest Cafe & Villaggio Dei Bambini

“Revive the Tree With Our Rainbow!”

Date & Time: October 13th &14th, 12:00-1:00
Host:  Teacher Mabo
Cost: $20/1 water colour bottle
Venue: Forest Cafe (DD19 Lam Kam Road, Tai Po: 大埔林錦公路DD19段)

Idea:
Because of the typhoon Mangkhut, a lot of Hong Kong trees fell down. It was a great tragedy. It was sad…  But, we are not going to end this experience with “Oh! It was sad…” feeling. We perceive this event as a great opportunity for children and whole this community to think about nature, and a way to support our environment.

I’m hoping that through this activity, it can be the trigger for the participants to enhance their consideration and compassion for the nature.  Also, the colour investment part includes, “discovery, curiosity, exploration, ingenuity, and agility,” so it naturally helps developing children’s STEAM skills.  In addition, it’s not somebody’s colour.  It will be your “own” colour that nobody can make. We help the tree with this “own” colour.  So, this part can increase participants’ self-esteem, which is very important for self-identity development. In the last, this “tree” is not just a “tree.”  It will be “our tree.”  This part can create the participants to feel the sense of belonging to this community, “I’m not alone. We are together.”

Activity Details
Participants can purchase a bottle by $20.  On the table, there are 3 primary water colours, color pallets, and dropper prepared, so the participants can enjoy making secondary and thirdly colours. Or you can stay on the primary colours. When you finish making your own colour, you can move it in the bottle from the colour pallet.  Then, write your name on the bottle and find a place to hang it on the tree.

“Thank you!!!”
Thank you City, the owner of the Forest Cafe, and all the staffs at Forest Cafe.  I’m really appreciate we can run this activity together. Thank you, and let’s enjoy the day♪

 

缘起:

由於颱風的緣故,香港許多樹木倒了。這是一個很大的悲劇,讓人感到傷心……但是,我們不會用“哦!很傷心……”感覺。我們認為這次活動是兒童和整個社區思考大自然的一個絕佳機會。

通過這項活動,它可以成為參與者提高他們對自然的考慮和同情的觸發器。此外,色彩部分包括“發現、好奇心、探索、獨創性和敏捷性”,因此它有助於培養孩子的STEAM技能。此外,它不是某人的顏色。它將是你獨特的顏色。我們用這種自我的色彩幫助樹重新活過來。

此一活動可增加參與者的自尊,這對於自我認同發展非常重要。在最後,這棵“樹”不僅僅是一棵“樹”。它將是“我們的樹”。這部分可以讓參與者感受到對這個社區的歸屬感,“我並不孤單。我們在一起。”

活動詳情:

參與者可以購買20元的瓶子。在桌子上,有3種主要水色,彩色托盤和滴管準備,因此參與者可以享受製作第二和第三種顏色。或者你可以保持原色。完成自己的顏色後,可以將其從顏色托盤中移入瓶中。然後,在瓶子上寫下你的名字,找到一個把它掛在樹上的地方。

“謝謝!!!”

感謝Forest Cafe所有員工,可以一起開展這項活動。謝謝您,讓我們享受這一天♪
