Work - trip with some kids from Rainbow house and work at Rachawadee girls

These are the children from Rainbow house that we took out on Saturday. We took them for lunch at KFC which was a treat for them. Then we went and they played on the arcades then they had ice cream and a drink. It was really nice to take the children out as they don't get out very often. BUT...It was very tiring because they were all very excited about coming out. It was one on one with the kids which was definately needed to keep them under control! I really enjoyed it though and think it went well with the kids enjoying themselves.
Sorry about the photos being on their side by the way!


Eating sticky rice!!! They don't consider having eaten a meal unless they have had some rice. The ladies who make the food at the stalls here seemed to really enjoy seeing us with the kids even if we did disrupt the place. One of them gave the children her water when they were wanting us to buy them another drink, which was really nice of her.

Sharing the water the lady gave us.

Yum yum!!!!



He seemed to be more interested in licking all the sauce off the plate rather than eating his chicken nuggets and chips!

This is when I spent 2 days at Rachawadee girls which is the orphanage for the girls who are roughly aged 7+. There are women there too. We think some of them are as old as 35, maybe older! This is in the day care centre. However, we spent most of our time in the ward for children with Cerebral Palsy. All day Thursday we were in the ward, playing with the girls, giving them lunch and making sure that they weren't all lying on top of each other in their very small space. Then on Friday morning we took six girls to the day care centre which was really nice, it was one on one because most of these girls need extra care. Then in the afternoon we went back to the ward to play with all the other girls, though we didn't have time to play with them all. This picture above isn't actually one of these girls though.
Next week we are taking a gew of these girls to the church we go to. These girls are christian and would like to see what Christian fellowship is like. So they are really looking forward to that.

In the sensory room, she didn't like looking at the camera.

What a fantastic smile!




This girl is very bright, knows exactly what is going on around her.
