On September 28th, S.P.A.R.K. Core Team member, Danielle and I went to the YMCA on Staten Island and did a workshop! It was an awesome event!
We told the kids that if they were good, Miss New York Teen would come and read to them afterwards. We did some great activities, and because they were great, Miss NY Teen did stop by and read Chrysanthemum to them. We had a great discussion about goals and dreams, and what makes us special.
The kids were so excited and receptive and when we asked them what they had learned, it was evident that they had gotten our message that they were special indeed. The kids were so adorable!
What I love about S.P.A.R.K. is that we can tailor our workshop for all age levels and environments!
