... The kids started running around just hitting each other with the ball, playing a modified version of the 'dodge ball'. But, this time around instead of stopping them, the volunteers decided to join in with them and it was really amazing how much one enjoys playing like that. Because we were going 'crazy' along with them instead of asking them to stop, there was a considerable difference in their behavior with us. The kids seemed more calm around us and listened to the volunteers more readily than they would have on another day. What this week's caravan taught me was that the best way to connect to a child is being a child yourself...
