New Contest Alert - Tell Us About Y beour Hobby |Hobby Challenge... |@elian23khan| 10% to @steemkidss

My regards to all the kids, kid lover, parents and guardians. I'm not a kid but I am a kid lover. Permit me use this opportunity to greet @event-horizon for organizing the contest and for allowing everyone to participate. That's thoughtful of you ma'am.

I'm not married yet, but by the special grace of God I have kids leaving with me. And as a kid lover I am writing this post about Miriam's hobby. She is my best friend's child. Do to the Anglophone crisis plugging our Region their community was challenged so they had to joined me in town for safety and for the purpose of education. Miriam turned 5 years last March.

Formerly, I used to think that her hobby is singing and dancing when they came in from the village in December 2018. And I used to make fun of her and her dad, telling him that what he couldn't do, his daughter is doing for him. But lately I have come to realized that Miriam's hubby is centered around arts and crafts. She loves drawing, painting and creating different objects. Below is a picture of her, drawing and colouring the picture of her mom.

When she is in the mood of drawing, everything else can wait. This particular picture of hers was taken after a serious fight with her mom. During a three weeks imposed lockdown, we almost squandered all the food we had kept in stored for the period of the lockdown. This morning, her mom complaint that we have been eating voraciously and we need to cut down on eating or else we will run out of food. You know children understand only one language: to eat when they feel as to. Miriam is not an exceptional child.

Later in the day she asked her mom to give her food and she refused, she could not bear it with her mom. In attempting to appeased her, all our efforts failed so I decided to try out a psychological hint on her by giving her a paper and her colour box. Immediately she saw me coming with them, the tears she was shading automated into smiles and laughter and that made everyone in the house to joined her in the comedy moment. When I handed the paper and color box to her and asked her what she will be drawing for us, everyone was amazed when she said, "a picture of her mommy". We least expected that since she was just from fighting with her mom. Kids do fight with their mommies but they love them so much. Mom's are wonderful: We love you guys 💕💕💕

Her love for arts and crafts has serve me a lot because I have also engaged in learning many creative designs and working with her so that she can gain more experience in the field and become more creative. Below are pictures of some of the designs that I have been able to create with her.

Since we are soon getting into the dry season, our first design was a DIY Hand fan. We did this so that if she happened to be somewhere and temperatures are high, she can be able to help herself and someone else if there A4 Papers around.

Our second project was a card design to expressed our love to mommy. When I was working with her to design the card, I did not know the inscription to use inside, when I asked her what she thinks we should write inside the card, she said, "love you mom". And behold the card.

WE LOVE MOM
