#betterlife- The Dairy Game | 3- May-2021 | Street Children need attention (Drawing and literacy class)

Dear Readers ,

Hope this post finds you well.
As I have mentioned in my previous post that I have good experience of working with street children, child laborer in different parts of the country.

Since one week I was busy to collect data of street children in my town. Today I was successful to find location for starting some activity with these children. Today we have established drawing and literacy class at Nawab Market , Hayatabad Peshawar. ^{Nawab Market, Phase No 6, Hayatabad, Peshawar .}

It was really very positive, soul and mind relaxing activity. Children are great asset and resource of this country as Denny Kaya once said  

I believe deeply that children are more powerful than oil , more beautiful than rivers , more precious than any other natural resource a country can have.

Two of the seven enrolled children arrived at 2.30 pm . Due to cold breezes the weather was pleasant. I have purchased some color markers , pencils , a Sesser , drawing chart , papers and gum stick and scooch type.

_Stationary

In the beginning when I invited children to write their names , English or Urdu alphabets , diagram or anything the know, they were reluctant to touch the pen , only two children started writing . later on other children became interested and stated writing and drawing.

A bold and creative child

One boy named Said Maan wrote his name in reverse , this boy never went to school but he learned from the school going children . In after noon I wait for children to back from school and learned from them. Till to date I have learned write my name in two languages Urdu , English and alphabets ABC .

A shy minor Child

I have observed this minor child Said Nabi age 8 years was very shy but after one hour he become confident and started talks . This boy need special attention. _{Said Nabi age 8 years}

Threats to street children

After discussion I have realized that these out of school , socio-economically deprived children are vulnerable to violence, Asselt and harassment. I have also plan to conduct protection training focused on abuse and exploitation for these vulnerable children.
