“Children make up the best songs, anyway. Better than grown-ups. Kids are always working on songs and throwing them away, like little origami things or paper airplanes. They don’t care if they lose it; they’ll just make another one.”

~Tom Waits

It was ‘Origami’ Day for our PEARLS kids at Helping Land, Tondo, Manila for this day’s Brain Booster Activity.

Origami is the art of paper folding which is mostly associated with Japanese culture.

After the feeding, kids attentively listened to our volunteers on how to create paper cranes and hearts.

Before doing the paper folding, inside the papers, kids were instructed to write their wishes into it. And we hope that all their wishes will come true!
