At The Mabs Kids' Klub

By Mabi Azefor Fominyen,

We have been bustling with actvities at the Mabs' Kids Klub. For two weeks some 16 kids gathered at the Klub and we all worked on many different projects- dress art,  fun jewlry, crafts,origami,colouring, drawing, painting,puppet show, show and tell, singing , dancing,choreography,public speaking drill, kids' talent show, storytelling and lots more!

It felt so nice having to teach and help some kids from french-speaking backgrounds, learn how to introduce themselves in English.

We played with numbers, letters, shapes, colours and words. We visited the flower garden to get closer to nature and to identify the different colours and objects.





We used the flute, the drums, the tambourine to play and sng along some famous kids songs like A-B-C-D-E-F-G....H-I-J-K., Londonbridge is falling down

Thank you kids for participating!Thanks also for putting your imagination and creativity to test.Thanks for showcasing the team spirit while at the Klub

.

See the many hands trying to do the dress art?  Great teamwork!








At the Klub we never  say'we can't. We rather  'believe we can' and so 'we try really hard to make it'.
 How about that?

What a moment with the kids at the Klub!

It's been two weeks of fun with the kids at the Mabs' English Kids' Klub(MEKK). Eleven kids between the ages of 2-10 have taken part in our holiday programme.

0h my! I have been playing games & jumping around with the kids like never before, singing some of those favourite kids' songs(if you are happy and you know it clap your hands...)
drawing, painting, colouring as well as carrying out art and craft projects,

telling stories, teaching them the art of reading and public speaking, encouraging them to read as many books as possible, building team spirit among kids, testing their leadership abilities..... and all of these made me so proud, just like the other facilitators who gave me a big hand.

The kids have had a great time interacting with each other, doing the ABC soup, using tissue tubes to make pencil holders, making necklaces, designing paper shirts and ties, decorating the map of Africa, making party hats , crowns and many other items.

At the end of the programme, the kids showcased some of things they have learnt and designed while at the Klub and their parents were so thrilled. Like the kids, the parents all wished the programme could go on for a few more weeks.

This is another dream of mine that is gradually turning into reality:MABS ENGLISH KIDS' KLUB(MEKK). I sure would want to see this project grow, thus, giving a chance to many more kids to join in, share knowledge, gather new skills as well as put their talents into use and their imaginations to test.

I am most grateful to the parents, kids , facilitators and all who took part in the activites!
