BBE programmed the first clay craft with the children!

We made papercraft cards with our foster children using symmetrical shapes.

Thanks to our supporters, more children have been able to participate in this program, gaining new experiences. Through crafts and writing, children will develop their thinking skills.

The essays on the cards are about things you are proud of and things you want to praise yourself for.  Even if it's not something they can be openly proud of, we wanted them to be free to write about even small things like, "I'm good at this," "I have this strength," "I think this is a good aspect of me," or "I'm working on (something) with this mindset."   At this point, we told the children who always get good grades in class to write about other things.  It's great that th

We were reminded that crafts are not just mechanical creations, but require a variety of thinking, and that we must guide children to be able to do so.

During the craft time, children had time to reflect on ourselves. We wanted the children to be able to live their daily lives more fulfillingly by focusing on the things they are proud of and the things they are working hard at.

Now that the children have gotten used to cutting and pasting, we've introduced them to some slightly more complicated crafts.

Children enjoyed making 4 different types of Christmas cards.

Our foster child program has started in a new area. At that new region, we had the first concrete activity with the children who are not yet used to cutting, pasting, writing, and other activities.

Heartwarming, that the children shared given colored paper each other and decorated their pen holders in unique ways.

One more objective in this craft program was to familiarize the students with the concept of glue margin.

During our autumn program, children made a pencil holder, practicing using a ruler and compass.

This program aims to stimulate children’s artistic sensibilities and to help expand the boundaries of their expression.
