Kids Activities Week

This week Canterbury College was open to kids as young as 4 years old, where they would take a tour of the college and then partake in some fun activities such as painting, drawing, making medals, Olympic touches and sculpting. To gain a higher grade in my unit 10 i was part of a group of 3 who came up with and designed all of the activities they would be doing on the art table. I spent the week before the children arrived planning the activities, designing and making the templates for medals and torches and also shopping for the equipment they would be using. I then came in early on Monday morning to help set up all of the equipment to make sure it was all ready and safe for the children to use. During the week of activities i supervised the show for two whole days and also took care of taking down the show and making sure none of the equipment was thrown away. I found this to be a really good experience as i was quite hesitant before hand as i have never really been around young children and i wasn't sure quite how to behave, but after a few hours on my first day i had got the hang of things and was really enjoying myself.
