[Reader-list] From an art class with kids at Mumbai Mobile Creches

[Shashidhar]

Dear Chintan,

A real good project unlike most other negative literature which seems to proliferate here and for a change there is some talk about children, the list seems to be completely oblivious to their existence. 

Regards,

Shashidhar

Excerpts from
http://conversationcompiler.blogspot.com/2010/05/five-giraffes-finding-their-way.html

Our giraffes have hopefully reached Ola Helland of Stavanger, Norway. In our art class at MMC, we painted giraffes for his One Million Giraffes project.
And hoped that he wins that bet with his friend.

The kids were full of questions like: 'Will he accept ours?', 'Why does he want it?', 'Where does he live?', 'How will you send it?'...

I was hoping to get pictures of all the kids with their giraffes but the camera battery died. Here's what we did.

We used various regional newspapers to celebrate the pluralism that is India. And I love the Urdu script. The Urdu paper looked like a painting.

Note: To view the pictures, go to the link mentioned above.
